Wine Critic Reviews

Wine Enthusiast (93): A soft, pale shade of pink in the glass, this mostly Central Coast-grown rosé blend of 72% Grenache, 11% Carignane, 7% Cinsault, 7% Mourvèdre and 3% Rolle offers wet stone, smashed plum and subtle herb aromas on the nose. The palate's texture is stony and chalky, giving an edge to the plush rosewater and melon flavors.
