Beautiful light raspberry color on this rosé. Lots of fine herbs and stewed red fruits make this a slightly musky wine. There's more sweetness on the palate than the nose implies, but a streak of acidity that stays for a long while. It's fine, if not very interesting.

Ya it's cheap rose.. Soft with a touch of strawberry.. But unless it's really cold, it's flat.

Light and refreshing for summer beach drinking. Strawberry raspberry lemon zest, and a slight tropical citrus flavor. Hard to beat for $8.

Very refreshing and light. Not that sweet or fruity, just a little bit tangy. I'm not a big fan of light summery flavors.
