Tablas Creek is a Rhone varietal lover's paradise. Their
2003 Rose is a blend of estate fruit consisting of Mourvedre
64%, Grenache 28% and Counoise 8%. The wine color is a clear
medium orange pink. On the nose, it shows clean light
youthful aromas of cherry, watermelon, perfume and spice. On
the palate you might perceive a touch of sweetness. Since
the wine is fermented dry, this is a good indication of the
amount of fruit the wine possesses. With lively acidity, the
medium body has wonderful flavors of watermelon and red
berries and parts with a long finish. This is an excellent
Rose so drink it up now. |
