GreatBritishWine, John Mobbs have included Busi Jacobsohn’ s Rose’ Extra Brut 2018 in Valentine’s English Sparkling Wine.
Grapes: Pinot Noir & Pinot Meunier
Region: Sussex
Are you looking for a fruit-forward, generously romantic rosé? This Busi-Jacobsohn is your wine. It was made from a blend of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, with a small portion (7%) having been fermented in barrels.
I loved the colour on this – there was no mincing of words here, this is definitely a rosé wine – confidently pink with an evocative nose to match. There’s cherry, red apple, raspberry and even a touch of candy apple.
It’s got a generous presence on the palate too, combining brisk, crisp acidity (dosage is low at 4.6g/l), but this is balanced with exuberant, ripe red fruit from that fantastic, warm 2018 vintage.
Busi-Jacobsohn’s owners are big foodies, and I have it on good authority that this is divine with homemade ravioli.
