Goosecross Cellars 2004 Twentieth Anniversary Sparkline Rosé


I bought this sparkling wine a long while ago. It was the store's "last bottle" and I had been using the store's free wi-fi for three hours on their deck, so I had to give it a try.

I just liked the idea of a wine maker crafting this sparkling rosé (Chardonnay/Zin) as a 20-year wedding anniversary present for his wife. The shelf-talking notes or the sales woman may have also mentioned that this was the winery's first and perhaps only sparkling number.


I finally opened it for a brunch with Sylvia and Stacey. It was totally good. Not overly sweet and with a really clean finish, it suited our brunch of turkey bacon sourdough eggs benedict and Nutella crepes just fine.
