Nyetimber Rose, West Sussex & Hampshire

Disgorged in February 2020 and based on the 2016 vintage, Nyetimber's latest NV Brut Rosé is showing very nicely, mingling scents of cherries and strawberries with hints of mandarin, plums and spices. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and complete, with a vibrant core of elegantly fleshy fruit, bright acids and a pillowy mousse, this has turned out very well. In fact, it's the finest rosé I've tasted from this address. Drink 2021 - 2030.

The NV Rosé based on the 2016 vintage was bottled in April 2017 and disgorged in February 2020. The nose is equidistant in style between the 2014 and 2015 base and is my pick of the three tasted here, very cohesive and delineated with red cherries, strawberry and rose petal scents. The nicely balanced palate features pear, raspberry and touches of wild mushroom and pawpaw. Toward the finish, it veers more to the slightly heavier style of the 2014 base, though I find more tension here. This is very promising. (February 2020 disgorgement). Drink 2022 - 2035.

Brilliant dusky pink with orange reflections. On the nose there are aromas of ripe red fruits of sweet cherry and raspberry compote, alongside candied almond. In the mouth it shows a juicy texture with racy acidity, a gentle mousse and a delicate fruitiness. The finish is refreshingly salty with tasty, slowly fading wild strawberry fruit.
