2023 Cuvée Los Gatos Rosé of Pinot Noir
Central Coast AVA
Tasting Notes
“Medium orange hue. This Rose of Pinot Noir opens up with notes of vanilla orange sorbet, tangerine, and strawberry. Secondary notes of papaya, orange, and cherry infuse into both aroma and flavor profile. Notes of minerality gently roll in along a plush texture and modest acidity. This Rose finishes fresh, precise, and youthful. Enjoy now through end of 2025.”
