"This has a richer, peach-pink color with a copper hue to it offering ripe peaches, cooked apples, pastry crust and toffee. Tense and mineral on the palate with creamy mousse and tangy acidity that gives it crunchiness and verticality. Long finish. Drink or hold."

"Loads of citrus, leaning toward bitter orange and ruby red grapefruit, emerge from this wine. The palate is tart and zippy, with a touch of green guava candy, bright acidity and great structure finishing with a tight and persistent perlage.‡Jeff Porter"

"The 2018 Rosé Alta Langa Pas Dosé For England is remarkably pretty with a sweetly spiced bouquet of white cherries, mint leaf and confectionary spice. It sweeps across the palate with a soothing bead of fine bubbles while mixing citrus-tinged orchard fruits with saturating minerals that add a crunchy sensation. The 2018 finishes long and staining with a twang of sour citrus that keeps the mouth watering as a savory herbal thrust slowly fades."
