Cooper's Hawk Almond

Name: Cooper's Hawk Almond

Variety: White Blend - Colombard, Chardonnay

Country/Region: USA, California

Year/Price: NV, $18

Critique Review: As told to us by our server...almond pound cake and maraschino cherry. Spot on....more pound cake than cherry in my opinion. Subtle but there and not overly sweet. Would be good starter for brunch. Never had an almond bubbly and it’s quite interesting!

Reference Flavors: Almond, nutty, toast, cherry, cookie, nutmeg

My Review: Visually the wine is light straw in complexion with gentle bubbles. On the nose I smell maraschino/almond strongly in the front and apple/pear in the back. Now tasting, I get strong acidic fruit in the front such as apple and pear. The finish is strong in maraschino cherry and almond extract flavors, and there is a tart bitterness bite.
