Community Tasting Note

Saturday, March 1, 2014 - Pnp right of the fridge, wine pours a salmon pink and is clear of any cloudiness. It's primary aroma is maraschino cherry with some strawberry and watermelon notes in the background. On the tongue the wine comes across as crisp and fresh and full of fruit. The bottle gives no info. As far as varietals used but I would guess its heavy on Grenache. On the pallete the strawberry note and watermelon are much more prenounced. The alcohal is low and not noticeable.

This is a great rose with nice acidity that will hold up to lots of foods. It couldn't handle spicy Thai food though so don't treat it like a low PH white. For comparisons sake I prefer the 2012 which had some similar features but had more a candied fruit nose. I'll be drinking this and the WC pinkie swear long into summer. Nice job Stillman.
