Orofino Vineyards Cabernet Franc Rosé Pozza Vineyard 2022

Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPozza, with its intriguing pale pink-orange colour, comes off a small block of cabernet franc on a sloping, cooler, higher site in the Similkameen Valley's Olalla Gap. Look for a mix of fresh strawberries and citrus streaked with cranberry and rhubarb. The textures are soft and silky, and the finish combines desert scrubby sagebrush and stony mineral notes. If you visit the winery, the exact wine in the 750ml bottle is also sold in a 1.5L Bag, aka the Mag Bag ($43.30), which is an environmentally sensitive alternative, excellent for camping, boating, backpacking, beaching, picnicking, well, you get the picture.Tasted: 29 May 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
