Review:
Aromas of red berries, rose petals, and an allusion of sweetness greet you on the nose. A sip offers lush strawberry,cherry, and watermelon flavors accented by some lovely floral hints. A lush wine that still has a nice, fresh acidity, it’s not sweet, and it’s not overly dry like so many Rosés. A great picnic wine, especially with turkey sandwiches.
