Winery Review:  Intense pink color with violet hints,  Fresh red fruit bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish.  Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.  - Vintage Cellar 3/21/2013


My Review:   Decent Rose that's spicy and fruity on the nose.  Easily detectable hints of tomato juice and strawberry in its aromas.  The taste was acidic but retained its freshness with a spicy strawberry sweetness.
