A Cellared In Canada Rosé

A Cellared In Canada Rosé:
Grapes from an undisclosed location...
Jackson Triggs Unity Rosé

Wine Reviewed Jackson Triggs Unity Rosé 11.5 % alcohol about $9

Let’s start by quoting the marketing materials. “Tasting Note: Medium pink color; candied strawberry-cherry aromas; medium sweet, with sweet fruit flavors, with soft acidity. Serving Suggestion: A good summer refresher, or serve with crepes.“ And now for my review.

At the first sips this wine was round and sweet with a tinge of bubble gum. It had pleasant acidity. I started with Japanese rice crackers that added strawberries to the mix. The initial meal centered on a barbecued chicken leg. In response the wine picked up a metallic taste. The side dish was Basmati rice cooked with brown lentils. Now this liquid’s strawberry taste intensified and I noted some citrus.
