  Retail $16. Responsible bottle (353g; 12.5oz). Under screw cap. 100% Montepulciano. Fairly dark for a rosé with plenty of rope berry fruit in the glass along with a dose of minerality and a touch of red rose petals. The palate is tart and lively with boatloads of fruit and hints of the minerality and florality that the nose promised. There is also a decided salinity here, paired with just a kiss of sweetness. Great on its own, but likely better with food. Taco Tuesday, anyone?

  Watermelon color with promising raspberry, red cherry, watermelon, dried citrus, white pepper, wet stone and pretty floral aromas. On the palate it's medium bodied with good acidity and ripe raspberry, sour red cherry, watermelon, lemon zest, and spice flavors nicely accented with a kiss of salinity. 100% Montepulciano. Medium finish. 13% abv|SRP - $14
  
  This is a very good rosato that over delivers at $14. So food friendly too, It was paired well with a patchwork Saturday dinner of Sauteed Shishito Peppers, Caesar Salad, and Pan-Seared Salmon

  Juicy watermelon color. Flavors of ripe raspberries, red cherries, this has a creamy aromatic depth with juicy peaches and white tea, some dusty minerals and white pepper. The palate shows a crunchy, bright display with tangy white cherries, raspberries, with watermelon rind and lemon zest. Bright tones of wildflowers, basil, along with some flinty, salty vibes. Lots of fun, and surprising complexity and depth for a wine of this price point. Would be a great by-the-glass Montepulciano rosato.
