Sep 22nd, 2024Really zippy. Also complex, has fruit, minerality, and a vegetal earthiness.

Aug 5th, 2020I seriously love this wine. Easy to drink, even compared to other rosé. Peach, stone fruits, honey, and a nice minerality. Not overly acidic where it feels syrupy. Has a great structure to standup to food.
