Road 13 Honest John's Rosé 2010
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAnother tight, dry low fruit version of rosé that will be terrific with food. I must say it's encouraging to see the sugar dropped out of this category in BC one can only hope consumers respond. The nose is more herbal leafy cran-cherry flavours and like Tantalus the fruit quotient is dry and quite low. Food is the solution here; a creamy potato salad or an Italian bread salad would be perfect matches.Tasted: 08 August 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $16.00 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA wine shops |
