2020 Rosé "McGah Vineyard"
Rutherford, Napa Valley
Tasting Notes
The 2020 Rosé has a slightly deeper color than in years past. There are notes of classic onion skin pink that go deeper into a pale strawberry note. Light raspberry, strawberry shortcake and delicate white flowers jump out of the glass with a backbone of wet stone and mineral on the nose. The palate is clean and crisp with immediate red berries on the attack and followed by a refreshing mineral and a tart watermelon that lingers for a medium-plus finish. Resist the temptation to serve too cold on those hot summer nights and be rewarded with subtle notes of jasmine, lemon and grapefruit. The acid of this Rosé will help the wine outlast many other rosés on the market. Drink now or drink later, this tipple is sure to delight.
