Blossom Hill, Zinfandel Sparkling Rose

"It’s a Zin!" - Flight 1, wine 1 (blind): Bright light to mid salmon in colour. Citrus, red fruit and a hint of smoke on the expressive nose, and red fruit, raspberry and citrus on the palate, with some residual sugar and average length. Quaffable. 100% Zinfandel, 10.5% ABV. Approx. €10, not available in Germany.

Bright red-orange, persistent white foam round the edge of the glass. Mild moscato nose. Fairly sweet, fluffy mousse, but quite a light palate overall, surprisingly balanced by acidity. Not bad compared to prosecco etc. [Cork + cage; 10.5% abv; Tesco, supposedly reduced to £7, but I was charged £8.99!].
