May 4, 2012 - Simple Hedonisms Rosé Panel; 5/1/2012-8/5/2012: Previous vintage rose' (2011 is current release.)
When I first bought this wine, it was spritzy, so let it sit.
This bottle may have some variation. The nose was a bit funky,
and its simplistic and tart in mouth.
March 11, 2012 - Probably one of, if not the best, rose I've had. The girlfriend agreed as well. There is so much more than fruit going on. A caramel finish is preceeded with spring flwers, some herbs, and bright red fruit. The citrus notes of kumquats and birght acidity ties it all together. And for 15 bucks it's a bargain! Well done!
August 22, 2011 - Band-aids on the nose. First impression of tasting is the bright acidity, and then bigger fruit than normal for a rose. Watermelon, raspberries, cherries. Very nice.
August 22, 2011 - Very good smooth. Would buy again.
July 18, 2011 - My system (nose mouth finish) /+/, strawberry mouth, s[icy nose, acidic finish. YUM
July 8, 2011 - This was really pretty, showing watermelons, strawberries, raspberries and citrus. Focused and crisp with a zingy finish.
July 5, 2011 - Always a nice summer offering from Shane. Pretty consistent with the other notes - fruit punch and watermelon with a citrus finish. Could have used a bit more acidity, but it did have a good bit of it. I love the darker color of this rose' - maybe this is what makes me think of fruit punch when I have it. A very nice pair with some cheeses and sausages on warm evening.
April 25, 2011 - Just a great example of how good Rose can be. All kinds of fruits and spice on the nose with zingy acidity on the mdium-long finish. We paired this with baked Ham for Easter and it was a perfect pairing. I had this wine at Tannin in Kansas City last week and it was lovely on its own
April 13, 2011 - Can't resist ordering this in KC pleased to see it on list. Syrah rose- watermelon, jolly rancher, strawberry. Awesome acidity, finish. Keeper . If can.
