The wine is a lovely pale pink color in the glass. The nose is a refreshing blend of green grass, pink grapefruit and floral notes of rose petals. The taste is a beautiful combination of fresh citrus, light raspberry and tart pomegranate that transitions to some nice floral notes midpalate. The finish is a blast of summer, with some wonderful mineral notes that bring structure to the crisp refreshing finish.
Overall I would rate this wine a solid 8, as it's just a lovely wine for those hot summer evenings, and it's an ideal summer wine for the dry red wine fan like me, as the fruit is balanced, not overpowering or syrupy. Tonight I am just enjoying this wine sitting in my Adirondack chair on the deck, listening to the birds and enjoying the every changing types of flowers blooming in my yard. That's not to say this isn't a good food wine, as it would be lovely with a citrus stuffed lake trout or an heirloom tomato salad with aged balsamic! Cheers!
