TASTING NOTE: Aromas of cherry pie filling, ripe watermelon and candy apple. The palate is concentrated, soft and round with lifted raspberry and red cherry. Bright and zesty, this is certainly not your average rosé, but it doesn't sacrifice any of rosé's prized food-friendly nature. Enjoy this with grilled salmon, grilled pork or even burgers.
