July 1, 2020 - A delightful Rosé. Good structure, nice finish. A bit dry, not too sweet. Great on its own or with food. Refreshing!

June 18, 2020 - The Fourth Annual World's Largest Blind Tasting of American True Rosés: Retail $24. Fairly standard color with a bit of a dirty nose, with fruit struggling to get through. The palate is nice, tart, and clean, but light in fruit. Very Good. 87-89 Points. thedrunkencyclist.com

August 23, 2019 - When I tasted this blind back in June, for the Largest Blind Tasting of American True Rosé in the World, I wrote this: Pink with some orange tint. Fairly light. Bubblegum and a bit of peach. OK fruit and really nice flavors, I am guessing that this might be a saignée since it is on the round side. [Wrong: it's a True Rosé!]
I had mistaken it for (potentially) being a saignée, but no one is perfect. This bottle holds mainly true to that original note, but I find this wine to be a bit more tart and decidedly less round. I'm bumping it up a notch. thedrunkencyclist.com -
