This unusual rose, made from the Rossese grape, was fizzy and a little earthier than the typical roses I drink, but it was good.
Beautiful watermelon/salmon color. Very fizzy when poured, the extremely tiny bubbles lent a pleasantly prickly feel to the wine. Intense, earthy passionfruit and pomegranate nose. Clean, slightly fizzy flavors of bone dry, stony/earthy fresh grapes. Clean, fruity, and with a refreshing texture that would be welcome for light meals on very hot days. B. Imported by Kermit Lynch, I got this for $18 from B-21 Wines in Florida.
