This delicious Rosé—a blend of 60 percent Syrah, 36 percent Grenache, and 4 percent Viognier—features an elegant new label that well suits the pretty pink wine. It’s beautifully dry despite its bright fruit flavors. Winemaker Larry Brooks described it as one of the best Rosés they’ve bottled. It tastes of tangy strawberries, raspberries, nectarines, and melon, highlighted with soft spice notes. It’s great with chilled seafood salads, roast chicken, or vegetarian pizzas, and is perfect on its own during the last hot days of summer.
