Slighlty better than previous two bottles. Watermelon and floral nose. Nicely integrated on the palate showing more minerality on the long finish. Good acidity, very fresh and clean. Dry, don't confuse with white Zin crap!

Didn't knock me out like the last bottle. Same profile of watermelon and cherry with a floral hint. Nice weightless feel to the wine with well-measured acidic balance. A hint of awkwardness on the finish, but otherwise lovely and seamless.
Edit: Maybe even better day 2. Smoothed out a bit, yet still vibrant.

Dead ringer for watermelon Jolly Ranchers on the nose, but the palate was anything but sweet. Good minerality and acidity made this very refreshing on a hot day. Can't wait to locate more of this

Wow, what an outstanding rose! Very characteristic Pinot rose bouquet of watermelon, strawberry and cherry, but with an added floral element. This is also a very tasty rose. The red fruit profile hits on the attack and the acidity is perfectly balanced. The finish is immaculate and incredibly lengthy. Favorite rose thus far.

Tasted at the Iron Horse Winery and ordered a 6 pack. Absolutely gorgeous color and nose of rose petals and fruit. Palate follows with clean and crisp pinot flavors, very floral but dry.

Seems to have lost some fruit upfront. Nice balance remains (see previous), but definitely time to drink up!

The wine is the color of the juice of a watermelon. Flavors of strawberries & cream with a hint of citrus. Surprisingly smooth drinking.
