Castle Rock Winery
Mendocino County Rosé of Pinot Noir
Mendocino, North Coast, California, USA
I know it Castle Rock, but this one was really good. The nose was clean and subtle. Honeysuckle, Violet, Rose, pear, Citrus, celery. Taste a full richness of honeyed strawberries and cream, apple, lemon, honeydew melon, with a bit of salt. It was pretty, it smelled of fragile garden flowers but it tasted like breakfast fruit. There is a zesty satisfying finish that makes it balanced and delicious.

Aug 21st, 2018Got this at Costco for a song and it's been worth every penny. An orange/peach/pink color this is rather fetching. The nose is simple, but pleasant: citrus, stone fruit, strawberry and wet rock. The palette delights with underripe strawberry, cherry blossom, cranberry and soft minerality. There is the quickest flitter of sweetness, lending even more balance to a very nice rose. Nice work, Castle Rock.
