Don Giovanni Rosé Brut NV

Delightful celebration of life's special occasion was marked by the impression of this exceptional Brazilian sparkling rosé wine, crafted by Don Giovani winery, located in a region known for its bold terroir. The wine's radiant golden sheen is supported by a delicate, pale rosé tint, evoking the warmth of a summer evening. The nose is dominated by the sweetness of red fruit, with notes of caramelized sugar, almonds, and the subtle nuances of bakery notes. The wine's effervescent mouthfeel is outlined by a fine, persistent perlage, which adds to its lively and engaging character. In the mouth, the wine presents itself with a sense of personality, its body and composition well-balanced by a smooth interplay of sweet and acidic notes. This pairing is a match made in heaven, with the wine's pleasant, sweet-bitter aftertaste leaving a long lived impression. Cheers!

Visit to Pinto Bandeira, Brazil, was a highlight of my travels. The city's robust history is evident in its well-preserved architecture and cultural landmarks, bringing the historic site of the Dreher Cognac production. The local wine, Merlot, is a staple in the region. I was in particular impressed by the quality of the wine, with a 3.8/5 rating. The wine's supple texture and elegant bubbles were a delight to experience. The wine's ending was long and satisfying, with a pleasant mousse that lingered on the palate. Overall, a memorable moment that I would highly recommend.

Fantastic bargain sparkling wine from Don Giovanni, sourced from prime Brazilian terroir, highlighting a rich and fruity profile with a suggestion of finesse and vibrant acidity. A perfect accompaniment for social gatherings and pairing with a variety of small plates.
