Orofino Vineyards Cabernet Franc Rosè Pozza Vineyard 2019
Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPouring a pale peach orange hue, this cabernet franc comes from a small block of cabernet franc on the sloping Pozza Vineyard, a cooler, higher altitude site in Similkameen's Olalla Gap, surrounded by desert scrub. Summer strawberry, raspberry, rhubarb glides across the doughy palate, with a pin-prickle of skin grip holding everything in place. Quite full bodied for 11 degrees, this will be an excellent food wine this summer (salmon)!Tasted: 05 May 2020Tasted by: Prices:BC | $19.04 | 750ml | winery online, select private retailers |
