California, United StatesMeiomi and residual sugar go to together like that famous horse and carriage, yet the wine you think would be sweetest, Meiomi’s Rosé, is anything but, and for that, we are eternally grateful. The colour is pale, pale pink, the nose a mix of watermelon, rhubarb, citrus and strawberries. The palate is dry, offering fresh flavours of stone fruit and best of all, some electric minerality. Very food friendly, this will work with prawns, Dungeness crab and summer salads. It would appear winemaker Melissa Stackhouse is making her mark with this new release.Tasted: 25 March 2019Tasted by: Prices:
California, United StatesBehind this delicate pink/peach hue you'll find a fuller bodied pinot noir-based pink picked from Monterey, Sonoma and Santa Barbara. Silken and potent on the palate, with strawberry jam, light rhubarb, pear and watermelon notes. The finish is warming, though alcohol is reported at 13.5 degrees. This has a lovely polish to it, and though a flush of heat on the finish, would suit fried chicken or salmon burgers this summer.Tasted: 25 May 2018Tasted by: Prices:
