Crisp with a bit of a sour finish. Interesting flavors. Went in wanting an after dinner wine rose so this was not what I expected. Prepare your palate for anything but a typical rose.

Really good red blend to finish out the weekend. Unique, but very tasty and easy to drink. Thanks to Jeff D for turning me on to this winemaker.

Dirt very simple. Consault/Syrah/graciano delightful.
