This is the color of watermelon juice. It looks like watermelon juice. It tastes .... better than watermelon. However, the flavor of watermelon dominates the palate; a good thing. Citrus, pear, sage and other herbs round out the palate. It is an interesting rosé. (This is a knockoff of my notes from last year’s rosé, but I don’t know if this has riesling in it like last year’s wine.) A very American wine on a very American day. 13.6% alc. With egg salad and smoked salmon spread. Recommended.
