  Very light pink/salmon color. Very subtle nose of red fruit, strawberry, touch of oak/spice (though doubt Cathy uses an on this). Good acidity with medium finish. Alcohol is under control, but when warmed up there is a touch of heat. Very good.

  Best rose I've had this year. Coppery-pink color. Strawberry, citrus, a little bell pepper/bay/tobacco, chalk, melon, and a hint of butterscotch. Strawberry, citrus, and a little herbaceousness on the palate. Good mouthwatering acidity. Quite flavorful and full. Fairly complex. Delicious. One of my wife's favorite wines. Unfortunately, I can't find any more of this... 90

  Pale salmon. Bright candy apple and strawberry nose. Medium bodied (!), fresh if slightly tart raspberries, citrus zest, very zingy acid, and a medium to long finish. Really good and surprisingly substantial.

  Super pale pink, almost peachy colored. Nose of pineappe, tart cherry, and a bit of herbaceousness. On the palate, very light, dry with pineapple and green apple with notes of classic cabernet - faint blackcurrant and green bell pepper, with very bright but balanced acidity, resolving to tart cherry on a very long finish, and maybe, maybe a bit of oak spice, but I doubt myself because I would imagine this wouldn't be oak aged at all. Perhaps the most pleasurable, complex rose I've had. Paired with tandoor chicken and mushrooms, totally went off with that! 13%abv.

  Surprised at the color-very light--but not light in flavor. Cranberry, plum jolly rancher candy! Yummy!
