Summer in a glass! The color looks like somebody melted watermelon Jolly Rancher candies. Mineral and blue fruits in the nose and Summer berries in the mouth. Wowza! Doesn't the wine maker sign your bottles, too?

Third Rosé of the tasting is the Grenache Rosé from Two Shepherd Wines. Absolutely beautiful in color, completely different than the Tercero Wines and a deeper and darker color than the Scalon Cellars. This Rosé was a deep rose pink almost magenta pink. Nose kept changing over the evening and even the next day. Straight out of the glass this wine attacked with strawberries and some white cherries. As it opened up there was a savory twist to it, very appealing for us. Moderate acidity (7/10), slightly less than the Tercero but was nicely balanced and in line with the moderate plus body. Beautiful texture and complexity. Acidity gripped the sides of your mouth mid palate and left you with a slight puckered feeling. Slightly dry finish that felt like it would not end. We enjoyed it best above fridge temperature, but give it a chance to warm up a little, the complexity continues to grow. Completely agree that we need to grab a few more of these before they are gone! Drink now till 2021.

Silky at the front, opens up to reveal a crisp, tart berry with the right amt of acidity. A wonderful Grenache rose!

Pretending it's spring in MN, cracking our 1st rose of the season w/ asparagus. Just what the Dr. ordered. Super bright red fruit, bone dry and crisp.
