Tyler Harlton Rosé 2013
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThere's something about Tyler Harlton's rosé and its pale peach orange hue, orange blossom, kiwi/pear skin aromas and fresh, textured wild strawberries, juicy raspberries, citrus and sage scented finish that I gravitate (and salivate!) towards. Not shy, but not an assertive pink, Tyler fills his basket press with buckets of merlot skins and juice before pressing to yield this characterful rose. Only 118 cases of this rosé (merlot with a splash of chardonnay and malbec) were made, so if you're lucky to find one, drink it.Tasted: 27 July 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $22.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
