Wine Review: This dark pink colored Rose made from Pinot Noir opens with a wet stone bouquet with a hint of clementine. On the palate, this wine is light to medium bodied, slightly acidic and easy going. The flavor profile a mild mineral and saline influenced light lime with hints of tangerine and white peach. The finish is dry and pleasant. This wine would pair nicely with Rachael Ray’s bruschetta with tomato and basil or oysters. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Our 2017 Dry Rose of Pinot Noir joins a long Toad Hollow tradition of fresh, crisp Rose wine with complex flavors and body. A delicate cameo pink color hints at the bright and bracing character of this wine. Heady aromas of freshly sliced watermelon, the most delicate of rose petals, and honeysuckle blossoms lead to layered flavors of raspberry, white peach and wild strawberry. It finishes fresh with crisp acidity.
