El Terrano
Cariñena Grenache Rosado
Cariñena, Aragón, Spain
Pale gold, excellent clarity. White pepper, floral and green plum notes in nose, green apple and Meyer lemon flavors plus butter and honey in mouth, but bone dry. Mild skin astringency and mineral on finish, aftertaste.

The Spanish wine has a beautiful copper-pink color. The nose is not exactly overpowering, but offers up some pleasant strawberry and cherry aromas. There's a slight herbal tint, too. On the palate, the medium weight is abetted by an easy acidity. Red fruit flavors ride out front, while a barely chalky minerality makes things a little more complex. It's not a wine to write home about, even though I am, but it serves well as an afternoon sip or a companion to a salad or sandwich.

Nose of cherry, strawberry, watermelon rind and a slight minty/grassy quality. Palate starts out ripe and candied with an assortment of red colored candies. Good acidity keeps it balanced. Finish is dry with a touch of minerality and alcohol heat. Overall, an excellent poolside companion for under $10.

This was sitting in the fridge for a good five months. Fortunately, it’s always rosé season in Houston. As I recall, this was a bottom shelf find at Whole Foods, so I’m calling this a win.
