Very pretty shimmering light rose gold color. Nose juicy apricot, navel orange, a floral edge. Palate dry, crisp, some tart nectarine, some lemony citrus, then an earthy/almost Pinot-like vinous character.
Honestly wasn’t expecting much given the age for a rosé, but a very pleasurable drink still, good with a slightly spicy curry. 91 pts

An excellent rose if you don’t like pink water or cloying sweetness but prefer something earthy with a refreshing acidity and a touch of bitterness (think watermelon rind) and minerality. Rubarb and barely ripe strawberry. Good value.

Very nice with Boxcarr Farms smoked cheese, a Spanish hard cheese and crackers in the late afternoon by a fire pit. Bright, red fruit aromas and flavors. Quite good during a somewhat chilly late afternoon and early evening.

Not as great as the 2015. Still a nice, but astringent rosé

Satisfying with very strong strawberry notes that feels like you are eating a juicy fruit except it is balanced it’s dryness and acidity.
