More body than many with floral notes mingling with savory and spicy aromas. Really nice and representative of region.

Very nice! Nose of summer berries. Body shocked me a bit, a little heavier than I expected - but absolutely lovely! This will be a summer staple with grilled beef or smokey chicken.

A bright, vibrant ruby in the glass. Strawberries and a hint of watermelon on the palate. Refreshing. I just wish it were summer!

Dry, very flavorful rose blend. It was perfect with salmon kebabs and grilled veggies.
