Lunessence Rosé 2020

Summerland, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis year's rosé blends 68% merlot, 28% cabernet franc, and 4% syrah from Summerland's Drachenberg family vineyard. It was destemmed and foot trodden for three hours, with the merlot and cab franc co-fermented, before 5 months on lees in stainless. Silky smooth, with candied raspberries, ripe strawberries gliding along a streamlined palate, aided by a 7 g/L RS slick. That said, the tangerine pith/peel acidity meets well the sugar, making this a very friendly, seamless, polished choice for cracking this summer.Tasted: 05 May 2021Tasted by: Prices:
