Spring and Rose Wine is mighty fine. BRAVO Oregon

While at the beach for the first nice spring weekend after a long snowy cold winter, I decided to try a rose wine and this one stood out on the shelf mostly because of it's color.  It is a beautiful color and I loved that it perfectly stated it was a "dry" rose.

This wine is made of 3 different grapes and is from Oregon.  BRAVO Oregon.  I loved this wine at $15.99 a bottle.  The blend – Pinot Noir – 44%, Pinot Blanc – 23%, Pinot Gris – 21%  12.8% alcohol

Oregon Pinot Noir Rose

Tasting Notes:

Beginning:
Pink grapefruit, mandarin orange. The bouquet of scents from a fruit stand.
Middle:
Just bitten cherries, the bright freshness of a cranberry. Soft rosewater, cream.
End:
A marine tang, delicious! Sweet spice, white pepper.


Serve this nice and cold on a hot day and it is just lovely.  Hope you come to our wine tasting on June 28th.  It will be the arrival treat prior to our wine tasting

Cheers Winos!
