Thorn-Clarke Pinot Noir Chardonnay NV Brut Reserve
by admin on Jan.04, 2009, under sparkling wine, wine
Background: Is evidently part of a line called “Sandpiper”, though there's no indication of this on the bottle. 66% Pinot Noir and 34% Chardonnay go into this traditionally styled sparkling wine.
Appearance: Agglomerated cork with two discs of solid cork on the bottom. Pours a light peach with a hint of pink.
Nose: Strawberries and cream, toasted pecans.
Taste: Medium-light body, zesty acidity and the barest hint of sweetness. Biscuit and apple present.
Overall: Quite drinkable, and great quality for the price.
