WHAT: Dieu du Ciel! Rosee Hibiscus
Rating: NNNNN
WHERE: Saint-Jerome, Quebec
WHY: Its sunset pinky-orange colour, derived from hibiscus flowers, is reason enough to pour it. Almost wine-like floral aromas waft from the glass. Soft bubbles caress the mouth, a first impression of sourness giving way to tangerine, followed by a long, pleasantly bitter herbal finish. A multi-faceted beauty that would be great with Thai or Cantonese dishes. Please go buy this so the LCBO won’t discontinue it, as they did with the rest of the Dieu du Ciel! lineup.
PRICE: 341 ml/$3.10
AVAILABILITY: At selected liquor stores (product #165746)
