Champagne Week #6 - NV Lamberti Rosé Spumante Veneto

Had to throw a rosé into the mix, right?  Rounding out our Champagne Week reviews is this Italian wildcard.

(Full disclosure: This wine was received as a press sample.) Anyone expecting pink flavored fruit from this sparkling is, um, correct.  Carefree and uncomplicated, this afternoon quaffer has superfine bubbles and a superfine price tag.  Drier (in a good way) than expected, though the noteworthy aspects of this wine are easily summarized above.  $14


Drink this one while you're trying on seersucker attire in the privacy of your own home.  Or fire it up with grilled fish and pasta.  If you're man enough.
