Riviera Ligure di Ponente Rossese

Garnet color threw me off. Cranberry, funk, mineral, leather. Light and chuggable, wish it had a touch more acid

Delicious fruit explosion with a dash of pepper. Light and very fun/chuggable.

Can't say I've tasted a ton of Rosseses, but this one is delicious. Perfect summer wine!

2012

This was my first time having this wine. Interesting. Savory berry notes with a side of herbal funk.

Oxidized

Less rough than 2014. Smooth light wine, great chilled with cheese. The best Rossese I have had.

Rossese
Light pale garnet color w orange tints. Earthy nose of red cherry, barnyard, dead leaves, touch of coffee, burnt toast, manure, strawberry and animal. On the palate light bodied with fine tannins and a slight bitter finish. 9.0

Lighter but righter.

Excellent balance between power and finesse, delicious!
