Winery: | Vina Robles |
Location: | Paso Robles, Central Coast, California |
Wine : | 2007 ‘Roseum’ Paso Robles (Huerhuero) |
Appellation : | Paso Robles AVA |
Price : | $13 |
Color : | Bright pink-red |
Nose: | Watermelon, carnation, orange |
Palate / Balance / Flavors: | Not quite ripe raspberry, floral notes, and a touch of bitter orange zest / kumquat. Very refreshing style, tiny edge of tannin, I love the balance of sweet fruit with herbal floral and slight bitterness like citrus peel. Doesn’t have the heaviness associated with a lot of Paso dry rosé. |
Style: | Tasty, fun, easy to drink lots of this! Like the price too. |
Analysis: | |
Comments: | I really like Vina Robles’ touch with white wines, (reds are generally good too, just that they are SO good at the whites; usually there are a few bottles around our house) – emphasis on fruit, freshness and vibrancy. This is a nice example. (Sorry my photo is so crappy – iPhone does not like up close shots very well.) |
