Wine Review: This light salmon colored wine opens with a wet stone and orange like bouquet with a hint of fig. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a mineral infused strawberry with hints of red apple and cherry. The finish is dry and its subtle flavors slip away nicely. This Rose will be a very nice quaffer for you first party on the beach this summer. Stock up, chill it and enjoy! - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Dry with suggestions of rose petal, vanilla and strawberry and a delicate pink cast, this wine is a pretty addition to bouillabaisse, crab cakes or risotto primavera.
