Tasting - Dom de Mirail Cabernet/Merlot Rose



Dom de Mirail Cabernet/Merlot Rose
Variety:  Cabernet/Merlot Rose
Region:  Cotes de Gascogne
Country:  France
Year:  2011
Price:  $5.95
Shop Review:  There is a fresh, crisp character to this light rosé. It is eye-watering in its refreshing character, with balancing acidity, smoothing out the edges with a touch of caramel.
Personal Review:  Smells like hints of dirty diaper (not kidding).  Taste is much less sweet than expected based on the varietal.  Tinge of acidity but kind of watery in taste.  Didn't get the caramel taste at all.
Food Paring:  Not tasted with food
