Thank God It's Friday!
The day is bright, the sun is shining, and the weather is whispering: "It will be a great idea to pour some rosé into a glass!"
And I have an idea which one to pick!
Don't let the name Portugieser Rosé confuse you - it is not from Portugal but was made from the grapes variety called Portugieser. It was produced in Germany, by the Winegrowers' Association Freyburg-Unstrut.
It seems to be made by dealcoholizing technology, which is usually better for taste and aroma. And the result is pretty decent.
It is a medium floral rosé. You can distinctively feel rose petals, apples, and grapefruit in flavor. The sourness in taste is smooth - without raw notes, which often happens with non-alcoholic wines.
I will definitely recommend trying it.
Recommended food pairings: pizza, fried chicken breast, salmon, seafood pasta, and cheese plate.
