Roche Rosé 2014

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis boutique winery is brand new to the Okanagan, but highly experienced in wine, with owners Dylan and Pénélope Roche experienced with winemaking in France (her native country), New Zealand, Australia and Spain. This is their first Okanagan release, and are currently producing wines under the Parallel 49 licence until they obtain their own. Strawberry yogurt, wild raspberries and stone open this unique zweigelt/schonberger blend, a vibrant mid-pink hue from just three hours skin contact. Vibrant wild strawberry, cherry, red apple and spice on the juicy palate, finishing dry with a fragrant pink floral blossom note. Enjoy this medium bodied rosé with Provençal style pizza or pissaldiere. A promising first release from this young couple.Tasted: 21 June 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
