| Community Tasting Notes | | | Tasted by TottenCellars on 10/19/2014: I opened this up last thursday night and really thought the label was interesting and the color was intense for a rose.
I pulled the foil and bummer there's cork seepage, pulled the cork and its wet all the way through. So this bottle either had a bad cork or visited the fedex office in Arizona before getting to me.
So these notes are for a flawed bottle,
The color is deep pink almost orange in certain light.The wine is clear and free of sediment.
The nose is very muted right out of the fridge but once it warmed up I got red apple, strawberry and tart red fruit.
On the tongue it comes across as dry with maybe a tiny bit of sweetness. The body is light like a white wine with nice crisp acidity. There are no tannins to speak of. And the wine appeared to be balanced.
As it warmed it became more intense with bigger tart red fruit, the finish was extremely bitter which leads me to believe the wine was somehow cooked. Its not hot here right now some im not sure how this would happen. The tartness may have nothing to do with the spoiled bottle and more drinking temp. I let it warm a bit because the nose was so closed but found as I got it warmer it became too tart for my liking. The closed nose could also be a product of the spoiled bottle and would be interested to read anyone else's notes.
I liked the wine aside from the finish and feel its a solid rose at the price. I would be happy paying $11-12 a bottle delivered on this.

| The Wine Foundry
The Wine Foundry is a custom winery located in the heart of the 8th St. wineries in Sonoma, California.
Everything short of growing the grapes happens within our winery walls. Our clients from around the world can participate as much or as little as they want in winemaking activities from sorting, punchdowns and pressing, to private blending sessions with our talented winemaking team... and of course, our clients are always welcome to drop in any time to check on their babies.
Inside the winery, The Wine Foundry maintains a temperature and humidity controlled barrel room, a cold room, an in-house lab for wine analysis and our own bottling line. The winery utilizes some of the most state-of-the-art winemaking equipment available on the market, including vibrating destemmer and sorting line for double sorting, and computer programmable bladder presses. These on-premise assets allow The Wine Foundry precise control over the winemaking process and enable our clients to create the highest quality of wines possible.Rosé Blend"Rosé blend" can mean a blend of just about any varietals since the designation comes from the resulting color of the wine.USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson CaliforniaNapa Valley.http://www.stagecoachvineyard.com/vineyards/our_vineyards.php
