📍Texas Hill Country | 13.5% ABV

💫 Crisp. Dry. Unapologetically Texan.

This rosé walks the line between porch pounder and pink power suit. Pale salmon in the glass with clean, lean fruit—think strawberry skin, watermelon rind, and a whiff of West Texas wind. Bone dry but bright, with just enough acidity to cut through BBQ or stand solo at golden hour.

Finishes clean, slightly herbal, and refreshingly grown-up. No sugar, no fluff—just cowboy boots in a ballet class.

One-liner: “Texan charm in rosé form—dry, crisp, and not here to make small talk.” — a month ago

Great value. Medium bodied. Medium plus acidity. Highly aromatic with the gooseberry notes you'd expect from a good Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Overall this is probably one of the best values I've discovered at Trader Joe's thus far.

Great summer Rose with more complexity than most, especially lighter styles such as Provence Rosé. Great cherry and strawberry notes balanced out by the nice acidity and minerality. — 8 years ago

One of my favorite - if not THE favorite - new world rose I’ve had the pleasure of tasting. Obviously you have your usual suspects - Strawberry, rose petals, underripe cherries, a bit of spice and a hint of citrus. Overall this is an amazing QPR and I will definitely be buying again. — 5 years ago

First things first - this is a wonderful bottle of juice. Great balance. Acidity where it needs it. Aromatic and very pleasing on the nose and palate. Overall, this is a great varietal that's been handled masterfully by the vigneron.

Made from fruit grown in our vineyard in Mendoza, Finca Wölffer Rosé 2015 is a landmark rosé wine. Winemaker and Partner Roman Roth specially selected the component varietals—52% Malbec, 11% Pinot Noir, 11% Pinot Gris, 10% Bonarda, 8% Torrontés and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon—to grow and make this wine on purpose, not in a saignée process common to rosé production in this region. With its luminous pink glow and elegant, dry style, Finca Wölffer Rosé is the first of its kind from Argentina. you can almost taste the mountain air from the Andes. This is definitely rosé with altitude! — 8 years ago

Proper French rose with the strawberry notes to go along with it. Reminds me of a budget version of whispering Angel. — 5 years ago

I seem to like this more than most people that have reviewed this wine, and perhaps it's just a major difference between the 14 and 15 vintages that's causing the difference. Overall it has sweet Apple and honey characteristics followed by a long, strong finish with a balanced acidity and minerality. — 8 years ago

A steal of a value at $6 from Trader Joe's! Lots of wild strawberry and cherry notes along with an elegant minerality that tired it all together (along with the average acidity) — 8 years ago

This is from Argentina not Spain as it says here... that said, it's an incredible expression of Rose from a typically underrated region. The amount of foods and cuisines that this wine could pair with are staggering to say the least, but at this price point, this wine is what I'd like to call a complete "no brainer" since it's so cheap for the quality.
