Retail $25. 36% Cabernet Franc, 28% Merlot, 14% Syrah, 12% Petit Verdot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Zinfandel. A real kitchen-sink kind of rosé with a gorgeous bubblegum color and notes of wild strawberry, rhubarb, and a touch of watermelon. The palate is fruity, but certainly on the subtle side with a near-perfect level of tartness and a mouth-coating aspect that helps maintain the finish for longer than most wines (and not just rosés). For a winery that produces $100+ wines, this beauty, that you likely will find on the shelves for under $20, is a steal.

Needed to make this disappear before the summer is gone and found it to have a surprising, almost Chardonnay-like butteryness to it. Not a huge rosé fan, but a nice summertime coif.

I usually don't like rosé but this one is very nice and has less of the watermelon noted that usually turns me off. Definitely drinks best well chilled.

If I had just one word to describe this wine it would be...strawberries. Aromas of them fill the glass and they are ever-present throughout the pallate. However, there is a bright acidity and some interesting minerality present on the palllate as well. Number 5 of our 12 rosés of summer! [9/20/20]

Light-medium salmon pink in color. Full, fragrant & aromatic nose of ripe fruit aromas of fresh strawberries, watermelon & cherries with overtones of floral notes of roses, minerals & spices. Light bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty, ripe fruit flavors of fresh strawberries, cranberries & citrus notes of lemons & limes, spices & minerals. Lingering dry finish. Drinks quite well at present although this one might develop more complexity with another year of additional aging. An indicative blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot. An absolutely wonderful & enjoyable Rose.

Always a great fuller bodied rose that gets consumed in volume. Strawberry, cranberry and cantalupe notes with a bit of citrusy acidity.

Fantastic rosé for an afternoon on the sunny deck. Macerated strawberries, cantaloupe. Mostly dry, good balance b/w acid and fruit. Less acidity than many rosés.

Always a good bet, year after year! White pepper, flowers, raspberries on the nose. Raspberries carry through on the palate. Balanced, great acidity. Great food wine. Long finish.

Light-medium salmon pink in color. Full, fragrant & aromatic nose of ripe fruit aromas of fresh strawberries, watermelon & cherries with overtones of floral notes of roses, minerals & spices. Light bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty, ripe fruit flavors of fresh strawberries, apples & citrus notes of lemons & limes, spices & minerals. Lingering dry finish. Drinks quite well at present although this one might develop more complexity with another year of additional aging.

Salmon color, strawberry. We fell in love with their 2016 for its full-bodied, mouth-coating, red fruit forward, lip-smacking Rose. The 2017 hasn't done it for us in the same way as its thinner, crisper, and less "big." But we had purchased a 3L bottle and enjoyed it tonight with friends. I'd stil call it less than last year's but this was a a very solid, if not spectacular, wine. Fun times.

Color of pink salmon. Scents of strawberry and floral/rose. Tastes consistent with scents, and with proper acidity.
