Gorgeous color. Full-bodied with some structure coming from the cab sauv. Smooth with strawberry fruit. Interesting take on rose’. Good pairing with Thanksgiving turkey.

Bright salmon pink in the glass, nose is a bit restrained, plenty of fruit flavors kissing the underripe side of the cherry season, ripe rhubarb and red wild raspberry, hint of steeliness and nice minerality. Excellent QPR with this reliable rose.

Red currant and lemon peel on the nose. Elegant with a creamy texture and gentle acidity. Bright red berry with a hint of ripe watermelon, lemon and a stony/salty finish.

Eye: sunset orange pink. Nose: strawberries, cherry blossoms, apricots, roses. Palate: slight sweetness, astringent, medium to long finish in the front of mouth.

This is one of my all time favorite wines to drink. I think the fact this is a rose of Cabernet that makes it so appealing to my palate. We get all the nuanced gun metal, graphite and mineral influence to the cranberry, raspberry, cherry and dark fruits with the immediate gratification a rose affords. The fruit is super fresh and quick hitting. So smooth and balanced it seems to have a touch of sweetness even though it is probably totally dry. The color is an intense magenta. The nose is lively with roses and fresh crushed strawberry. Great balancing acidity. Just wants you to take another sip.

Farm raised salmon colored in the glass, nose is a bit restrained, palate is bone dry with notes of tart red fruits, rhubard, and crisp acidity. Medium long finish. Nice.

First of the 2014 vintage. One sip and it just made us smile. Aromatic nose of candied fruit, palate sings with cherry and red berries. Uncomplicated but delightful.

Fairly benign on front and mid of taste. Back end tart and tangy cranberries. A little unusual and off putting. From magnum.

Seemed a bit hot and big for a rose'. I had liked this way more some months back.

Always really good. Last minute substitute for a bottle that was corked. Very drinkable and great with a wide variety of foods.

One of the best value roses of the summer. Drinks beautifully at cool room temp, more like a light-bodied summer red than a typical hot day quaffer.

This is our go-to wine when we want red wine flavor in a rose. Always holds very well when paired with spicy dishes.

Color of rose petal. Scents of strawberry and apple. Tastes consistent with scents, nice acidity. Good QPR.

Lovely wine. More substantial than most rosés, a bit heavier bodied, but with expressive bright red fruit. Great QPR, as usual.

Deeper colored than most roses. Tangy and yet earthy with cherry, watermelon and an engaging bit of funk. Must buy more before summer's over!

simple but a great summer slammer.
fresh zippy acid. impression of sweetness but definitely dry.
juicy melon, strawberry, peach, blood orange, and honeysuckle. rose petal. more floral than mineral.
front loaded with a short finish but still a great QPR for $10-12

This remains one of our favorite Rosés. Always great to drink and the bottle always seem to be very short. :) Each vintage is consistently good.

Nice with a calamari citris salad. Easy to drink. Slight smell and taste of strawberry fruit. Chilled is fine but not too much.
