The only thing missing from this to give it a 10 is some age...but, as my first (won't be last) monte bello, this was good in so many ways! I'll give more detailed comments when, next time I have it, I can do something besides revel in its deliciousness. — 10 years ago
I love Revel Wine's wines. And Brooks is a classic... Always consistent, decently priced, and pairs well with most anything. Great way to start or end the evening. — 10 years ago

If the swelled bellied orange marmot sat squat atop the cranium of a bellicose, belligerent human representation of a malignant tumor hasn't got your disposition a bit in the dumps, please pass on this wine; you obviously lack the qualities of a thoughtful human being and should stick to wines marketed as domestic dispute. For those of us who prefer life in varied tones, who revel in the complexities and nuance intrinsic in existence: find yourself a bottle of this elegant rose. Subtle, but present. Profound, yet humble. A profile of elegance, an example that all the ugliness vomited out into our lives cannot deny us our simple pleasure in life. — 9 years ago
Woman winemaker. And... Another Revel Wine peep. Plus...rose is the new black — 10 years ago
Mid gold, lychees and rosewater, medium sweet, good acidity, gentle cardamom spice with a long lingering finish.
From a biodynamic winery whose vines revel in their glorious scenery over Lake Wanaka. — 10 years ago

Let's talk about this little rockstar. For obvious reasons we love Brooks. 1. Supports our friends over at Revel Wine 2. I don't believe I've had one wine from them I wasn't in lust with. Hadn't had this one before, easy to drink and hits the back of your mouth right where it makes it water. Great mid-week, gonna get laid, wine. — 10 years ago

He described nuance
Well said
Very balanced, silky
Mineral element promised Ce through after two hours
Needed 90 minute decant and relatively high drinking temp
Still, a well made effort ( noting fruit is fading) that I enjoyed with Gene Bicksler at Revel

Classic aromas of lychee, a hint of honey, and apricot. I could keep my nose in this glass and revel in the aromatics. Love it! On the palate: m- acid, m/m+ body. Long finish. Balanced. A great example of the gewurztraminer grape. — 9 years ago
