  A rose made from 100% Agiogritiko grapes, the name refers to the amount of time the wine is kept in contact with the skins. Very intense watermelon red color with a pure nose filled with watermelon, cherry soda, raspberries, rose petals, with a touch of crushed black pepper. Very light refreshing wine with decent acidity, slightly monotonous cranberries, raspberries, and watermelon flavors.

  Simple Hedonisms Rosé Panel; 5/1/2012-8/5/2012: A Rosé made from (Greek) Agiorgitiko varietal. The clever name refers to the number of hours on the skins - 14-18. (packaging note - one of the better looking screwcaps.)
  (Yes, this is my 2nd tasting note; its also part of my ongoing May Rosé panel.)
  
  Color is a vibrant light to medium pink.
  Expressive Nose of Watermelon, Strawberry, Hint of Wet Stone
  In The Mouth: Bright but not overwhelming acidity that makes this an easy quaffer. A fun picnic right on your tastebuds with
  watermelon Jolly Rancher, fresh strawberry, some notes of minerality. A pleasing finish that makes you want more.
  
  A Wonderful Rosé that will delight almost any wine drinker with half a palate, your wine geek friends will go 'ooooo' over a varietal they have never had.
  Do buy some if you can.

  Wines of Greece Live Tasting: Perfect overlap - Wines of Greece tasting with my May Rose' panel/series.
  13% alc
  Color: A medium pink, watermelon flesh.
  Clean nose of watermelon, cherry.
  Bright & fresh in the mouth, watermelon jolly rancher, strawberry, a wonderful finish.
  
  A wonderful aperitif or summer fare wine. (also good for Thanksgiving!) If you can find this puppy anywhere, buy it.
