  Portland: The city of Rosés! (E&R Wine Shop, Portland OR): Much darker, richer red color here. This smells like an alpine flower field; bear grass in full bloom!Absolutely beautiful image it paints in my mind. Very fruit forward on the palate, practically drinking like a light red Pinot Noir. Mild barrel funkiness, nice intensity, good acid, and lingering cherry flavors in the background of the palate. The finish offers similar cherries, but very dark in complexion for a Rose. Nice acid lingers. Pretty big and bold, this wine. Feels like it's cheating in this lineup, because it practically drinks like a red wine, so of course it stands out.
