Grgich Hills
2018 Estate Grown Rosé Napa Valley
Silvery pink color. Aromas and flavors of stewed fruit, struck match, banana, and passion fruit with an oily, bright, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a tingling, brisk finish with no oak flavor. A solid rose crusher; serve with a good chill.

Amber beige color. Aromas of spiced apricot fruit cake, agave nectar, tomato, marzipan, and dried onion with a supple, bright, dry-yet-fruity light body and a brisk dried raspberry, cinnamon tisane, and dried hibiscus flowers finish with dusty tannins. A unique rose for distinctive pairings.

Amber color. Aromas of paprika, banana peel, and overripe cherries with a satiny, vibrant, dryish light body and a snappy black tea and green tomato finish with no oak flavor. An earthy and interesting rose with a savory side.
