Renegade Wine Co.
Columbia Valley Rosé Blend
Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
Dark pink in color. Strawberry, floral and maybe citrus notes in nose. Berry, cherry and a hint of lemon and melon in mouth, medium to coarse skin astringency on palate in the finish. Crisp, dry to off-dry. Four red varietals in blend, but mostly Syrah (80%) Pleasant enough, great value

Strawberry & Cherry aromas, nice balance between fruit & acidity, paired well with Posole.

Charming, balanced, could be a bit more acidic to balance what borders on sweet but all the lovely fruits are in play--sweet and sour cherries, strawberries, and some petrol-ish wet stones too so...there is that. Still something wants for this. But for 9 bucks via Garagiste? Sure. I want to taste more Renegade. Consider curiousity sparked.

A conundrum of varietals make up this bright and inviting rosé.
The nose is a warm expression of citrus fruits.
The palette is defined by a burst of freshness, along with citrus zest and racy acidity. Excellent texture and density which finished a touch sweet. 11.6% abv becomes a perfect complement to what is a fun wine to drink.
And I forgot, this comes in well south of $15 per with a stelvin-type enclosure.

A refreshing Rhone blend rose, perfect for sunny days. Heavier 80% Syrah blend, accompanied by 11% Cinsault, 5% Counoise & 4& Grenache. Much more than your average Rose and only $10. With warmer weather of spring/summer on the horizon, its worth grabbing some!!

Beautiful. Dry, cherry, summery. The Syrah makes this fuller than most, and it works.
