Name: Barboursville Brut Rose Cuvee 1814
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Region: Orange County, Virginia
Country: USA
Year: NV
Price: $25
Winery Review: A collaboration with our founder’s Tenuta Il Bosco estate in Oltrepò Pavese, this sparkling wine is created in the metodo classico and is 100% Pinot Noir of DOCG designation. A true rosé, the radiant color is imparted by brief contact with the skins, after pressing. Ideal for celebrations as well as for fine companionship with dining, the Cuvée 1814 honors the date of Thomas Jefferson’s design for Governor Barbour’s landmark mansion at our estate, a Virginia historic landmark.
My Review: This was a lot like the other Barboursville Brut that I tried. It was fruity on the nose also with that red wine smell. It was really dry but not as dry as the other Brut. This had a little bit of underlying sweetness to it. It was subtle though. I liked it better than the other one but again it was just okay and nothing I would return to.
