Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little peach, a little cantaloupe and plenty of rich character courtesy of the Pinot Nero. A nice cocktail-party wine with significant substance. It rolls on the tongue and leaves a clean and precise palate feel. Sweetness is not a problem here; it barely shows any toast or yeast. It’s cool and collected Italian bubbly.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Seductive flower and pear aromas create a pretty nose. The mouth is solid although not terribly lively, with distinct orange and apple flavors. The finish is dry and chalky, with a tight grip and mouth-coating viscosity. —M.S.

Dry and lively, with some soda and light toast to the nose. Spunky on the palate, with tangerine as the lead flavor. Finishes clean and aggressive, with some lemony tartness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Pink in color, with a light, fading bubble bead. Simple in terms of aromatics, showing a hint of peach and berry. Zesty stone-fruit flavors are offset by some drying soda-cracker notes. Finishes clean and zesty.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aromas of vanilla, pear and banana are light and sweet, almost like a glazed doughnut might smell. Apple and melon carry the palate, while the fresh finish is fruity and a little bit sharp.

Rotari Chardonnay - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Wonderful on all fronts: The wine opens with a delicate pale pink color and segues into aromas of peach juice, pink grapefruit, fresh flowers, small red berries and fuller, rounder tones of yeast and freshly baked bread. The acidity is excellently integrated and this bottle-fermented pink sparkler is elegant through and through. Pair with smoked salmon canapé appetizers.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Creamy and toasty in the mouth, with nice acidity to give it structure. A consistent sparkler with enough versatility to be consumed with a meal; not just for toasting. Imported by Prestige Wine Imports Corp.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smoky and toasty, but lean. The palate is sour, with a heavy shot of lime pith. The tangy, thin finish doesn’t bring it back from the edge. Lean and mean. —M.S.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Has only the barest hint of copper or brass color. Nose of apple, toast and cherry leads to flavors of sour cherry, green apple and citrus. The finish is positively lime-like. Crisp and clean.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Definitely off-dry in character, with caramel corn, doughnut and apples on the nose. Additional applesauce flavors blend with canned pear to create a sweet, sugary, lingering whole. Not bad but simple and candied. Imported by Prestige Wine Imports Corp.
