The opposite of disappointment in a bottle. Neat to taste something so enjoyable that was just vinified exactly a year ago, stemming from a very difficult vintage.
2016 saw smaller and fewer berries in Monterey, resulting in a low yield bottling of beautifully colored and intensily cherry and strawberry-forward rosé to write home about. Makes me wanna follow all ten commandments today.

Light salmon color with fruit and floral aromas. On the palate strawberries and cherries, some citrus notes, overly acidity. Smooth character, not overpowering or memorable, medium finish ending with a mineral character. Just ok! Tasting Sample.

Truly enjoyable! Has bright strawberry notes with a subtle earthiness to balance it out. One if my new favorites.

Knights from an estate! Wow how chivalrous! Nice pink and orange hue. Smells dry and herbal or dusty. Maybe like wet bricks and wood with citrus peels? Anyway the smells seem right for a Rosé. Flavors are pretty balanced and agreeable in the dry Rosé style. More citrus than strawberries, but it’s got a nice mix. And it’s ‘aged’ alright too.

Neal.... this is pink.
What does it taste like? Watered down peach fizz.

Not a favorite. Slight effervescence but little flavor. Couldn't detect any real flavors.
