Calculated Risk 2018 Rose of Pinot Noir

Calculated Risk doesn't settle for mediocre. Selecting varietals from the most exclusive appellations. This rose boasts a beautiful pale pink hue. It's fresh, clean, fragrant and juicy. Notes of strawberry, guava, banana, nectarine, and grapefruit. It's gushing with delicious fruit forward character, golden apple, cherry, orange blossom, clover honey, & peaches dance across the palate. Harmony is the word that comes to mind, balancing the light-bodied ease of rose with the round mouthfeel that regular white wines lack.

93 POINTS - "With a lovely light salmon hue, the wine opens up with fragrant notes of crushed rose petals, ripe berries, hibiscus tea and watermelon rind. On the palate, vibrant flavors of fresh raspberry, tart cherry and dark plum are lifted with an electrifying burst of racy acidity leading to a long, dry finish. Bright, tangy and vivacious in every sip." Chris Sawyer

92 POINTS - "A great Rose' of Pinot from the RRV in Sonoma county. Aromas of bright strawberries and raspberries with hints of a dry stone gravel bed. It trails off with a small note of tropical fruit. To taste this wine is a pure summer treat. Crisp red fruit, rhubarb, and a pleasant touch of white pepper. I would have this with friends out on the deck with charcuterie and soft fatty cheeses. And don't forget the fresh berries." Steve Kleinfeld

This carefully selected Calculated Risk Rose of Pinot Noir is beautifully colored with fresh, vibrant aromas and flavors of strawberry, white peach, and jasmine.
