Wine Review: This pale coral colored wine made from Valdiguie grapes is a steal at $13. It opens with a faint Maraschino cherry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly off-dry and savory. The flavor profile is a tasty red cherry and mild mineral blend with hints of tangerine and lime. The finish is dry and fades away nicely. This Rose would pair well with shrimp scampi. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Pours a beautiful coral hue in the glass, showing immediate aromas of strawberry and blossom. On the palate this wine is incredibly quaffable. Juicy strawberries are backed by apple skins, wet stone, and a hint of sweetness, finishing long with a clean, crisp acidity.
