El Paseo
NV Paloma Wine Cocktail, Mexico

Pair this wine with:

Category: Other Cocktail

Date Tasted: 9/6/2022

Country: Mexico

Alcohol: 13.5%

Emerald straw color. Aromas and flavors of grapefruit and peach sorbets and orange blossom honey with a supple, crisp, fruity sweet light-to-medium body and a smooth, breezy finish with accents of peaches and mangos, seltzer water, grape fruit, and lime zest with no oak flavor. Nicely balanced citrus fruit flavor with acidity for a ready-to-go Paloma, but could use some additional carbonation or a sparkling wine addition.

About

Other Cocktail

A Wine Cocktail is a ready-made mixed drink that is composed primarily of wine with the addition of alcohol or other mixers. In order to be classified as a Wine Cocktail as opposed to a cocktail with wine, the primary source of ABV in the beverage must come from the wine. As long as this is true, any number of combinations are possible, and you'll be surprised at what exciting options you can find!
