Castello Monaci
Kreos Salento Negroamaro Rosato
Salento, Puglia, Italy
Decent budget rose. Light pinky orange salmon color. Reminiscent of a Provence rose with tart raspberry and orange zest. A bit of unripened strawberry too. Simple but effective.

Damn, I had this at a tasting and fell head over heels for it- I remember that I couldn't get anything on the nose so when I tasted the balance and the wonderful finish and unique flavors on the tongue I was blown away.
Then I bought a bottle... And it was a completely different wine.
Still nothing on the nose and the taste was flat - I saw potential in this wine and will explore more rosé from the Negroamaro grape.
(I split my rating between the 8.0 and the 9.+)

Dry, yet fruit forward. Hints of strawberry

Apr 13th, 2018Great 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.

Full bodied. Not super dry or super fruity. It's decently good. Would happily order it. $12/glass at Eataly
