Rich dusty deliciousness — 19 hours ago
Medium garnet color with a nose of strawberries and tart cherries. It also has floral and cola notes. Very smooth with nice fruit. I think it is a drink now wine. Give it longer and it will flatten out. Very nice. Had with my father and mother-in-law with pork chops. Did scotch and cigars before dinner so hopefully my palate is accurate on this. A fun time with family. My favorite aspect of wine is its attachment to positive memories. Definitely had that as we enjoyed this wine. — 17 days ago
Contrasting this to the Sarah Francis, it’s more dense and viscous. It’s just more decadent, while the SF is more ethereal. Rated them the same but for different reasons. — 6 days ago
Really enjoyed this Rosato on a hot summer evening! Favorite rose so far. Too good on its own to mix with anything. — 2 days ago
Rounded but not oaky, acidic but not astringent, orange-y but not too funky. — 13 days ago
