This Stinson Rosé just made my day! Rosé of Mourvèdre. Gorgeous coral color. Strawberries, basil, and roses with a white pepper finish. Beautiful!! @stinsonvineyard #vawine #virginia #rosé #stinsonrocks — 10 years ago

Time has been kind to this bottle. Rich and brooding (the hallmark of HS wines, really). But this is shifting to a lively softness and elegance. Love. 💜 — 10 years ago

Rivarose in Salon de Provence Brut Rosé Blend

Very expressive, very Provence. For my taste, a smidge heavy on residual sugar for a Brut designation, but I still finished my glass! 😉 — 10 years ago
