Wine Review: This pretty pale pink colored Malbec from Crios opens with delicate strawberry and faint red raspberry bouquet with hints of wet stone, nectarine, and watermelon. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round and fresh. The flavor profile is gentle crushed stone, lime, and tangerine blend with notes of kiwi. We also detected hints of mild red cherry, white pepper and strawberry. The finish is dry, and its mild tannins and refreshing acidity are nicely prolonged. The Tasting Panel would suggest pairing this versatile Rosé with a grilled mahi mahi sandwich or grilled sea bass dishes. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: A fresh, dry, and delicate rosé with aromas and flavors of strawberries and gooseberries that lead to a balanced palate and a crisp finish. A match made in heaven when it comes to fish, fresh green salads, or grilled chicken.
