{"product_id":"2017-house-of-arras-vintage-rose","title":"2017 House of Arras Vintage Rose","description":"\u003cp\u003eEd Carr pretty much wrote the book on Tasmanian sparkling, and this 2017 release shows exactly why Arras sits at the top of the tree. Sourced from cold sites across Tasmania - mainly the Coal River and Derwent Valleys - this is a blend that leans heavily on Pinot Noir (73%), giving it real weight and presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this apart is the patience involved. It spent seven years on lees before release, which is the kind of aging regime usually reserved for prestige Champagne. That long stint in the bottle transforms what could be a simple fruity wine into something much more savoury and layered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it’s a subtle rose-gold colour. You get the expected hit of fresh raspberry and strawberry, but it’s backed up by toasted brioche, marzipan and roasted hazelnuts. With a low dosage of just 3.1g\/L, it feels bone dry and precise, with a crisp mineral acidity that cuts right through the creamy texture. It is intricate, serious fizz that feels luxurious without trying too hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"If it’s true that we buy first with our eyes, then shut up and take my money. We’re again in low-dosage territory, with only 3.1 g\/L. And the fruit shines... The finish is tense and precise, with a satisfyingly chalky bite.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Lisa Cardelli (Wine Pilot)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e97 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The wine is bright and energetic in the mouth, delicate yet intense, with piercing flavour that is layered and complex, dry and refreshing at the finish and entertaining to the last drop...
