Simple Hedonisms Rosé Panel; 5/1/2012-8/5/2012: Normally available wine club only, snagged one of the last fall during a media visit. I believe its Grenache based, but doesn't say. The light color but 14.8% alc would support that.
Color is light pink, salmon orange. Nose of ripe strawberry, bright cherry In the Mouth: the fruit is mellowing as the Rose' reaches prime, like many I have tasted, its best window is in 12 months, but still makes an interesting, enjoyable wine, and becomes more food driven.
If you can snag some of the 2011 release, do so.
