Columbia county 2.0: Rose for Lopez fans like me suffering from recent sticker shock. Instead of 100$ it’s closer to 30$ & while not bearing that same intensity of acidity & barrage of tertiary flavors, close enough. More a lozenge red color, Unami & light red fruit notes, & a very solid acid backbone but not zingy. More like a light red. Paired very well w sliced grapefruit & orange w a tahini sauce, z’atar, & crispy hot onion oil.

This ‘17… Is salty….
Beautiful salmon copper, tending pink.Nose like candied grapefruit rind, herbs, mineral.
This effort produced a long, savory, easy on the fruit wine. Perfect actually w a shrimp & sausage gumbo.
Great qpr though the Spanish are creeping up there.
Thanks@Andrea
Note : 1/2 btl , 3 days later w just a rubberized stopper in the fridge and beautiful. A bit richer, tad less acidic.
