Strawberry red color. The nose is a blend of cherry and strawberry. In the mouth, there is tart cherry and strawberry, but it is not harsh. Structurally, it is medium-boded but not heavy with solid acidity. The finish is adequate. Overall, this is a bigger-boned rose with red fruit but there is plenty of acidity to make it refreshing.

This just seems to get bigger every time I try it!! Dark, like a Pinot in the glass. I felt the alcohol a bit this time too. Worked well with roasted chicken with a curry rub. But I'm going to let my last couple of bottles get some time on them.

Drank out of water glasses, cuz that's all my sister had. Seemed a bit alcoholic at times, but we still drank most of it. Hope it was just a little off and not headed downward.

Great color in glass..looks like a Gamay. No pink here. As in most years, great grip and bite on this (maybe a little spritz on this right now), with lush watermelon/red berry flavors. I think this is one I will try to hold a bottle to test how it ages. Terrific.

Did not like this bottle when I tasted and I do not like it now. Reminds me of Kool-Aid. Not impressed
