Vintage Cellar's Notes: Fresh in flavor and crisp in texture, this dry rosé offers berry, tart cherry and light herbal flavors, with firm acidity and a clean finish. Focused and juicy.
First tempranillo rosé I've tried before. Thought it didn't have much on the nose, a light sweet fruity smell came through though. This wine tasted great though, well balanced, not too light and not too bland, it was decently full bodied and still not that heavy. Got citrus tastes, along with maybe blackberry as well. Very dry, yet had enough flavor to counteract the acidity.
