Manzoni 2015 Pedregal Vineyard Rose of Pinot Noir (San Benito County)

Country: US / Pedregal Vineyard Rose of
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Manzoni / San Benito County

Very deep purple for a rosé, although still transparent, this could be mistaken for a light red wine. That’s also true for the aromas that include cherry pie, cola and a light dusting of clove. There is a tangy tension to the sip, then flavors of baked red cherry, pastry crust and more clove. It’s rather delicious, but a tad heavy for a pink wine.
