Tasting Notes:
VH Rosé presents a captivating deep salmon hue, with a low opacity and impeccable clarity.
It features an aggressive bouquet, predominantly sweet, suggesting a significant presence of residual sugars that contribute to its fragrance. Wilted rose and ripe prune notes are prominently discernible, with a weird cooked wine smell, which is perplexing. This particular aroma smells almost artificial, deviating from the traditional fresh and fruity characteristics expected in rosé wines.
It presents a taste profile that is notably sweet, surpassing what might be expected for balance, and it appears to lack depth in its flavor complexity. The sweetness is accompanied by an aggressive and somewhat artificial flavor, which might challenge the palate of those seeking a more nuanced or traditional rosé experience. VH Rosé does not exhibit much length; the flavors dissipate quickly after each sip, leaving little in the way of an enduring impression. Despite its light body, which could be appealing under different circumstances, there is an underlying light but unpleasant bitterness that detracts from the overall tasting experience. This combination of characteristics may make it a challenging choice for enthusiasts seeking the subtlety and refinement often celebrated in rosé wines.
