Pre-Covid vintage; what have these grapes of wrath provided unto us mere mortals? Pink and gold, excellent clarity. Strawberries in nose and mouth, hints of peach, apple, pear and lemon flavor, mineral finish. Acidity is fine; this ain’t watery to my palate, just “lightly flavored”. If you want a fruit-forward red fruit dominant Rosé, this is not your wine. Its charm is it’s different. Good for sipping, but not a great food wine, I’d think

Whole clustered heartily agree with @Sharon B - totally watered down. No body. Just strawberry essence adrift in a sea of alcohol.

Not a fan, not much flavor at all, seems watered down.

This pink wine’s nose is dominated by strawberry, melon and tropical notes. Graham says a suggestion of cassis and grapefruit is possibly a function of the cooler 2019 vintage. On the palate, the wine has heft, a discernible weight I don’t usually find in rosés. There is a creaminess, too, owing to the time it spent sitting on its expended yeast cells. The savory hallmarks of Graham’s wine’s shine through, but the fruit is the star. Despite the full mouthfeel, acidity is quite fine. The finish is lengthy and somewhat citrusy.

This is a nice Rosé from Central Coast. Light peach in color and easy drinking with lots of fruit notes. Medium-bodied with medium plus acidity. Dry on the palate and nicely balanced. Showing citrus, lemons, green apples, light strawberries, peaches, apricots and minerals. A nice wine to sip on by the pool. Good by itself or with food. Exactly what you want from a Rosé by the pool. A blend of Grenache, Grenache Blanc, Vermentino, Cinsault, Picpoul and Clairette Blanche. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 88 points. $16.

Fruity, but dry, with strong citrus notes and what I can only describe as a hint of cocoa. If you like chocolate orange this could be for you.

Primarily Grenache (79%) with small amounts of Six other grapes. Aromas and flavors of strawberry, peach, melon, tropical fruits and dusty earth. There is also a hint of brioche and a very creamy texture (lees contact?). Touch of pepper spice on the finish. Bright acidity. Refreshing.

Really good but maybe a little too… fruity? I did like it, though.
