The NV Rosé is my favorite current release from Nyetimber. It spent three years in the fine lees and includes both the 2009 and 2010 vintages. It has superb intensity on the nose with delicate scents of Morello, punnet of strawberry and a touch of cold wet limestone. The palate has a silver bead of acidity that cuts through the strawberry and red cherry tinged citrus fruit, an English sparkling Rosé that is gentle and pretty, yet retains that crucial sense of tension. This is an excellent sparkling Rosé. Drink Date 2017 - 2024
Offering up aromas of red berries, honeycomb, peonies and subtle spices, the NV Brut Rosé is medium-bodied, fine-boned and elegant, with a delicate core of fruit, nicely integrated acidity and a well-defined finish. Pretty and understated, this is a decidedly charming wine from Nyetimber. This is based on the 2015 vintage, supplemented with 11% reserve wine from 2014, and it was disgorged in January 2019 with nine grams per liter dosage.
