Not nearly as wonderful as we remembered. Too old? Too warm? Bad bottle? In any case, it was flat, not much flavor, not much going on. A disappointment considering we have loved this one in the past.

(Toad Hollow Eye of the Toad Pinot Rose) #1; COLOR-a darker Rose; NOSE-little sour cherry action; quite tight; PALATE-good mouthfeel; not much acidity; creamy around the edges; has a nice medium to full bodied aspect and a lot of flavor; heavy cherry and strawberry action; it's quite vibrant; subtle cedar on the back-end; a creaminess that many Rose's don't have; GV-84/85

Drank this over the weekend in Michigan. not as crisp as I would like for a Rose. Medium bodied with notes of strawberry and rhubarb. 85 points.

Won't blow you away by any means, but great $8 rose to introduce friends at a dinner party. Good fruit and not too much sugar.
