Welgemeend ‘Sparkling Symphony’ Pinotage 2016
This fun fizz is fluorescent pink and froths invitingly in
the glass. It’s a 100% Pinotage, 12.5% abv, sweet with around 30g/L residual
sugar and made by the ‘Technique Contemporain’.
Unfortunately the bubbles dispersed almost immediately, and to
me a glass without a stream of rising bubbles isn’t a fizz.
Despite the
back label describing this as a ‘classic
bubbly’ Technique Contemporain is Welgemeend’s
own name for carbonation.
I think this needed more pressure to retain bubbles,
but it has no pretensions other than as a party wine and it looks very pretty.
