So I didn’t even know that songstress Kylie Minogue had a wine operation — and now it’s increasing into the burgeoning non-alcoholic area with the launch of Kylie 0% Glowing Rosé Wine, its first within the U.S. market.
Some winemaking particulars:
Kylie 0% Glowing Rosé Wine Various makes use of a novel fermentation course of that reduces sugars by as much as 30%, generates no alcohol, but delivers all of the refined flavors and traits of a historically fermented wine produced with natural premium European grapes and inexperienced tea from the southwest mountains of China. Kylie Minogue’s 0% Glowing Rosé Wine Various’s distinctive fermentation course of allows the event of flavors and acidity present in conventional wine with out producing any alcohol.
The flavorful product could be attributed to the meticulous sourcing and the incorporation of inexperienced tea into the mix; the tea leaves are hand-plucked – one bud and two leaves at a time – brewed into a robust infusion and added to the grape ferment. This inventive course of leads to a full mouthfeel and lingering end, rounded off with dried tannins to current a posh and finely balanced Glowing Rosé, minus the alcohol – with solely 25 energy per 4 oz. serving. It’s additionally vegan and vegetarian licensed.
Inexperienced tea within the wine, eh? (And carrot extract for shade.) Effectively, I wish to assume I’m open minded… let’s dig in.
The wine is definitely on the candy aspect, however not overwhelming with sugar. There’s a contact of sourness that evokes many a rose, serving to to mood a few of the brilliant however wholly acceptable notes of pink apple, mandarin orange, and pineapple. If there’s inexperienced tea right here, it’s current within the type of a normal floral character that’s extra akin to orange blossoms. The end is peachy, with overtones of vanilla custard.
It’s not mind-blowing in complexity, nevertheless it’s positively a worthwhile choice within the NA area — notably at this worth level.
