Top Notes For

The barkeep told me that us foreigners (not from NYC) drink more of these New York wines than locals - too bad because the top selling cold wine - a Sancerre was a piece of shit at $2. more a glass - narrow minded punyism!
This was an upright refreshing rose with just the right touch of earthiness.

This is quite good for 13$. And I was just about ready to say the Garagiste wines I ordered were somewhat mediocre on the whole. Perhaps I should say they are upper mediocre class for QPR.

Very aromatic, fruity, strawberry, with an interesting herbal, jammy quality. Nice work Kelby!

Pretty, bright nose full of fresh strawberry and cherry. Surprisingly full and dry in the mouth with no real notion of fruit. A burst of bright acidity leads to deeper earthy flavors laced with stony minerality and a fairly short finish.

This young winemaker Kelly James is going places. Very humble & so VERY talented. This rose is lovely elegant with good structure, a very balanced wine. Drink it anytime. I love it!
