L'Ecole No. 41 Grenache Rose Alder Ridge Vineyard 2012
Member Review by jtryka:
The wine is a lovely pink grapefruit color, which is appropriate since the nose is a pleasant combination of pink grapefruit, strawberry and hint of floral notes. The taste starts out with a burst of strawberry and citrus, and then eases into some lovely minerality midpalate, all leading to a lovely, exceptionally dry finish supported by some well structured tannins that I've come to love about this wine. What a refreshing way to end a sweltering summer afternoon! See the full review on by blog here: http://allaloneonaplanetfullofpeople.blogspot.com/2013/07/2012-l-no-41-grenache-rose.html

The wine itself it s a lovely pink hue in the glass with lovely aromas of citrus, green apple and rose petals. The taste is marvelous, with some sweet berry fruit at the outset, giving way to some spice and orange midpalate. The tannins are very subdued, leading to a long, somewhat gravelly finish that is simply superb.
