- Shop Review: There is a fresh, crisp character to this light rose. It is eye-watering in its refreshing character, with balancing acidity, smoothing out the edges with a touch of caramel.
- My Review: The aroma had my nose tingling a little after smelling it, I couldn't put too many good words towards the smell, the best I could come up with was rubbery or latex. Just kind of a bland smell. The taste was equally as boring. It just tasted like a watered down white, ar a watered down nothing, I found nothing appealing about this wine. Bland and maybe a little bitter. As you can see this is a rose (add a tilde to the "e"), but it is the weakest, lightest rose I have ever seen and the flavors just didn't pop for me.
This is my first ever blog and will be a documented history of my wine experiences over the course of my last semester here at Virginia Tech. It is required for my Geography of Wine course with John Boyer but I plan to use it for my own personal enjoyment beyond the lifespan of this course as well.
