Light, copper-tinged pink. Fresh and bright, with lively raspberry and wild strawberry aromas sharpened by a suggestion of lemon-lime to go with the repeating strawberry quality. Serve this tangy rosé as an aperitif or with sashimi.

The color alone sets this wine apart from its peers; it’s what can only be called Barbie doll pink. Fresh and foamy, it spurts out of the bottle as if to say “Par-tay!” Fruity and flavorful, it carries hints of rose petals, citrus zest and cherry Lifesavers.

Deep pink. Rich cherry and strawberry on the nose, with a suggestion of floral honey. Dense cherry flavor is braced by firm, zesty acidity, giving the wine an impression of power with elegance. Finishes with fresh, juicy red fruit flavors and good length.

Clean and firm, with primary red fruit flavors of watermelon and cherry, this is an appealing, supple rosé. Serve it with a rustic country pâté.
