One of my all time favorite roses from California, which is saying something at this price point. Kurt Fauerbach, Owner Xplor Wine
Ballet slipper pink with just a slight orange hue. Very pronounced creamy aromas of strawberry and watermelon with floral notes of verbena, passion fruit, and orange blossom. Not shy at all right after bottling. Dry, crisp and dancing on the palate. Just right fruitiness and candy cane flavors that include subtle banana, strawberry, and sweet tarts. The fruitiness is balanced with a touch of mouthwatering acidity and plenty of verve.
Pink-fleshed melons and delicate, rocky earth aromas converge on the nose of this bottling. The palate is spritzy in acidity, with a chalky texture and white-rock flavor that complement the crisp strawberry and pluot core.
