Tasting - Sean Minor Pinot Noir Rose Vin Gris

Name: Sean Minor Pinot Noir Rose Vin Gris
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: Carneros, California
Country: USA
Year: 2013
Price: $20

Winery Review: The Vin Gris is a bright and vibrant salmon color with cherry, strawberry, cranberry and ripe watermelon aromas on the nose.  On entry, the wine displays bright strawberry flavors. Throughout the mid-palate and finish, raspberry and cherry fruit characters are balanced with spicy and crisp acidity that linger creating a refreshing and lengthy finish.

My Review: I usually do not go for overly fruity wines but I found this one to be quite enjoyable. The red berries came through on the nose. On the palate, I got a sharp berry taste that was a little surprising but good overall.

I did not try this with food.
