Light coral orange color. Aromas and flavors of cranberry and raspberry, tart cherry, cassis leaf, and alpine herbs with a silky, tangy, dry light-to-medium body and a captivating, medium-to-long finish conveying shades of raspberry and tart strawberry. A bit tangy and savory on the fruit character but a lovely Michigan rosé with crunchy red berries.

Off-Dry Rose

Off-dry wines are slightly sweet wines that are great for sipping on their own or throughout a meal. They're different from dessert wines in that they contain considerably less residual sugar and have only a softly perceptible sweetness.
