Tasting - Dom de Mirail



Name:  Dom de Mirail
Variety:  Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot Rose
Region: Cotes de Gascogne
Country:  France
Year:  2011
Price: $5.95
Tasting Date and Location: 14 Feb 2013 at Vintage Cellar

Winery review:  There is a fresh, crisp character to this light rosé. It is eye-watering in its refreshing character, with balancing acidity, smoothing out the edges with a touch of caramel.

My review: Not at all what I was expecting. Thought I'd get a sweet, fruity wine, but it instead had a sour and highly acidic taste.  Didn't like it very much.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
