This is new vintage from Cresto di’Oro (Three Arrows) ranch/vineyard in the sub-AVA Green Valley of Russian River, Sonoma County. I am so impressed with this Pinot Noir rose. The color is like rose gold/copper which is so pretty. The aroma of fresh lime and lemon, white flowers, juicy strawberry and raspberry popped out right away after a swirl. The palate was so rounded with white peach, grapefruit, and melon finishing up with such a nice crisp taste, no tart or bitter taste at all that I found in most of dry roses. It’s a lovely rose that I didn’t expect to like 👍 — 6 years ago
Where am I? Somewhere in Quarantini. Who are you drinking with? My sweetie & listening to the Mamas & the Papas. All this is a metaphor for Molly Drew’s 2018 Morning Dew Pinot Noir. Lovely. Even before the pandemic. Much better now. Cheers! — 5 years ago
Creamy Mountain Dew. Pear and apple. Touch of salinity — 6 years ago
Straw color. Apple and tropical fruits like pineapple, honey dew, and mango. A slight creamy note that is balanced by the medium to high acidity on the back end. — 7 years ago
Very pale yellow. Nose is expressive with apples, orange blossoms, honey dew melon, and just a blade of lemon grass. It's medium to full bodied with a silky mouthfeel, but it's still zingy and lively as hell. An explosion of tart apples and lemon lollipop command the palate, with mineral and fresh garden herbs. It finishes tart but with a heavy coating that lets the flavors linger. — 8 years ago

A lovely blend of key lime and green apple, a touch of honey dew, intensely flavored. A touch of chalk and kernel, the latter mostly aroma. High acid, medium to light body, strong finish initially but clips off. — 9 years ago
Yum! Honey dew and melon on the nose, brisk, lemony, and acidic on the pallets with a really nice salinity and minerality to finish. Lovey complex Loire sauv blanc. — 6 years ago
Full bodied citrus flavors, honsuckle, honey dew — 8 years ago
Honey dew. Honey suckle. Orange or lime rind. Stinky cheese rind, a tiny bit of sulfur behind the beauty that adds a complexity.
