2015 Roebuck Estates, Rare Expressions No.19

Description

ABOUT THE WINE. Launched in Autumn, the Roebuck Rare Expressions Range from the Sussex-based producer showcases a unique collection of limited-edition vintage sparkling wines. The debut wine, Expressions No.19, hails from Block 19 at the Roman Villa vineyard nestled in the South Downs. Crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, this wine embodies Roebuck’s signature style of structure, depth, and complexity, elevated by an impressive 84 months of bottle ageing. With only 2,500 individually numbered bottles produced, it’s a rare and collectible gem that captures the essence of its terroir.. TASTING NOTES. This glorious sparkling wine is rich yet beautifully balanced, with a golden hue and a bouquet of ripe peach, baked apple, and honeysuckle, enhanced by notes of toasted almonds. Delicate bubbles and a silky texture lead to a lingering finish, showcasing its exceptional quality and long maturation.. FOOD PAIRING. Perfectly paired with smoked salmon, seared scallops, or even roasted poultry. Its richness also complements indulgent desserts like almond tart or baked peaches.. FRIARWOOD SAYS. An extraordinary first release from the Rare Expressions Range. This wine will only get better with time, making it a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
