Cicadas Song-
A new offering for this year, a yummy rose that is light & fruity with a lots of watermelon notes, even a hint of jolly rancher watermelon candy, also showing a bit of citrus notes with a hint of lime rind on the end… fun and gulpable.

Floozie –
The Floozie shows an intense minerality with petrol notes and crushed stones on the aroma, this carries over into the palate which has a definitive saline character along with an array of orange citrus fruits (specifically clementine, tangerine and blood orange). The wine then opens up to flavors of white peach and a hint of honeysuckle. This risky girl has a long and lingering finish that would be great enjoyed with a charcuterie board.

Dom Diogo-
A deep and extremely flavorful wine which reminds me of an adult Shirley temple… lots of grenadine notes, candied berries, and a unique raspberry shortbread character on the finish. Very fun! Could also see this making a really interesting base to a sangria or frozen rose cocktail!!

Chinon –
A spot on representation of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc, rose style, it’ll make you fall in love with old world wines all over again… raspberry tea and forest berries with a subtle leafy, underbrush component that opens up to dried rose petals and a touch of mint leaf. A rose to savor and ponder the meaning of life on a cool spring evening.

Truro –
I had to add this wine to the lineup because it is going to shock and surprise you. Crafted from California Grenache grapes and vinified on Cape Cod, this wine is completely indistinguishable form a French Provencal rose. Shows watermelon and fresh strawberries on the palate, crisp and incredibly charming.

Sheldrake Point –
My favorite rose from the Finger Lakes… and possibly my favorite rose of the season thus far. This wine is a great contrast from the Couley –Dutheil Cabernet Franc rose as it is much more focused on lean salty minerality with barely any overt herbaceous qualities (which is hard to do for Cab Franc!). Extremely fresh and easy drinking, a sure to please wine to share with family and friends.
