2020 Pinot Noir Rose

Last year’s Best of Show winner. It’s like walking through a strawberry patch and tripping causing a face plant in a plant full of juicy ripe strawberries. A brief startle quickly turns into heaven. Not only does this true Rose have the visual appeal of translucent pink, it also carries pleasing notes of strawberry shortcake with a fresh baked scone and house made whipped cream. Elegantly smooth with a tartness that carries through the back of the mouth. Wait a minute, is that Van Morrison playing into the mystic?
