  July 27, 2008 - Nice Rose. Had at a BBQ and was very enjoyable and a real crowd pleaser.

  June 6, 2008 - On the nose there are strawberries with a dusting of white pepper. The palate has a profusion of black pepper on its extended finish but the attack and mid-palate is all cherries.

  May 17, 2008 - clear, med-intensity, ruby-salmon with white watery miniscus, tears to form and fall, ruby highlights clean, medium intensity, youthful, aromas of strawberry, tangerine zest, rose petals, fresh raspberries,herbaceous aroma of fresh leaves palate: dry, acid is medium, tannin is medium, somewhat stalky and course, body is medium, alcohol is medium (estimate 12.5) length is medium plus flavor intensity: medium+ flavors include fresh raspberry, cherry, garrigue, leaves, strawberry, twigs Conclusions: CCBL This is a very good example of a commercial rose wine, made to drink young and priced for the market. For its category it is a good quality wine as it has a concentration of fruit, a very refreshing length, and an appropriate balance between the somewhat stalky and coarse tannins, fruit, and medium acidity. A simple but complex wine meant to drink the year of purchase. Will not benefit from further bottle aging.
