Big Basin Vineyards, Rose, Boulder Creek CA, 2019
$35.00
Comprised of 47% Grenache, 32% Carignane, 13% Syrah, 8% Mouvedre, the 2019 expresses an interplay of Grenache and Carignan that adds to the intrigue and complexity of the wine. Like a proper whole cluster pressed rosé, the color is a pale pink/peach. It has both wonderful texture and vibrant acidity that keeps it fresh and alive! The nose is floral with hints of peach and apricot. On the palate, the minerality comes through as crushed rocks with hints of stone fruit and just enough mouthwatering acidity to power a clean, but long finish.
