Rustic Roots Fameuse 2013

British Columbia, CanadaThe 2011 grabbed a silver medal a couple of years ago at the National Wine Awards of Canada and the current version is equally impressive. A Provencal-like orange colour the blend in this sparkler is some 70 percent Fameuse apples (the tree in question is closing in on a century of growth in the Similkameen with 30 percent Santa Rosa plums. The nose is predictably ‘fruity’ with a hint of apple cider. The attack is reasonably fresh given the near 20 grams of residual sugar with just a hint of cooked apples and butterscotch in the back end.Tasted: 04 April 2015Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
