Jansz - Premium Rose NV

eRobertParker.com #195 Jun 2011 - Reviewer Lisa Perrotti-Brown - Blended of 68% Pinot Noir, 26% Chardonnay and 6% Pinot Meunier, the NV Jansz Non Vintage Rose, has a very pale salmon-pink color and expressive notes of fresh strawberries, peach blossoms, golden delicious apple and a whiff of crushed biscuits. The bubbles are fine and long-lasting while the palate offers good balance with high acidity off-set by judicious dosage (10.1 grams per liter of residual sugar) equating to a brut style with a long peaches and cream laced finish. Drink it now.

Tasted Nov 2010 - Lovely yeasty, Francophone nose with a smooth, soft palate and brisk lemony acid. (RH)

Issue: Dec 31, 2007 - Pale copper color, smooth in texture, with perky, citrusy acidity up front. Hints at strawberry as the finish gets softer. Drink now. . –HS

Jul/Aug 07. By Josh Raynolds. Pale pink with a delicate bead. Understated redcurrant, strawberry, orange and mineral aromas offer good precision and verve. Focused citrus and red berry flavors are on the light side but deliver admirable lift and persistence. Here's proof that flavor doesn't necessarily require power.

James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2011, 93pts (NV) - " Salmon-pink; the higher percentage of pinot meunier has a considerable impact, the strawberry, spicy notes more evident; good length and balance."

Tyson Stelzer 93pts (NV) - "Gorgeous and sophisticated, the allure of this wine is as much what it is not as what it is. A sparkling rosé of such restraint is rare at this price. Subtle strawberry hull and lemon blossom flavours glide into a long finish, accented by fine minerality."

Nick Stock, Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide 2011, 91pts(NV) - ""Plenty of ripe, red, pinot noir fruit aromas here. This has an alluringly sweet red perfume and gently savoury complexity working away below. The palate delivers crunchy red cherry pinot noir flavours and builds nice, fleshy, creamy weight towards the finish, and savoury notes to close."
