Quails' Gate Rosé Lucy's Block 2018

West Kelowna, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaLucy’s Block, named for the Stewart family grandmother, Lucy Mary Stewart, is a rosé made from young vines grown at the family’s east Kelowna Westpoint Vineyard. In 2019, the blend is a mix of pinot meunier and pinot noir that opens with savoury strawberry, pear on a slightly sticky mid-palate. The style is Provençal dry with juicy red fruit and a dusting of sage and spice. It’s ready to drink, but it is best served with food. We enjoyed it with grilled asparagus and chicken. Not quite as delicate as last year.Tasted: 19 May 2019Tasted by: Prices:
