Russell & Suitor ‘Baila Con Toro’ Traditional Method Pinot Noir Rosé 2023, Tasmania
Pale rose-gold with a fine, persistent bead. Wild strawberry, cranberry and fresh red cherry lift from the glass, layered with pink grapefruit zest and delicate rose petal. The aromatics balance delicate Pinot fruit with the savoury, pastry notes that come from traditional-method time on lees.
On the palate; bright red berries and citrus are carried by lively acidity and an elegant, creamy mousse. Extended lees ageing brings texture and notes of toasted brioche and almond, while the fruit stays fresh. The finish is crisp and persistent, with cranberry, grapefruit and a hint of toasted nuts lingering.
Vino Masters Score: 96/100 ★★★★★ A refined Tasmanian sparkling rosé with fragrant Pinot Noir fruit, fine bubbles and brioche complexity.
