Today’s Deal ~ 2014 Hogwash Rosé of Grenache

$16.99/bottle or $13.99/bottle on 6+

Hogwash Rosé

BELIEVE IT!!!  From the GURU of Napa Valley winemaking himself, Tuck Beckstoffer, comes the 2015 Hogwash Rosé.  With the rise in popularity of rosés Tuck decided to let it ride HIGH ON THE HOG with this one and he NAILED it!!!  Perfectly adaptable for any of your favorite summertime dishes and it HITS THE SPOT for a warm day by the pool.  At just $13.99/bottle on six + it’s what I like to call a no-brainer!!

Tuck Beckstoffer is one of the most renowned names in all of winemaking.  Bringing us beautiful wines like Semper which are some of the best pinot noirs and chardonnays on the market today…to the ultra-exclusive and limited production Mockingbird Wines that are sourced from mega-vineyards like Missouri Hopper and Las Piedras.

The 2015 Hogwash is a perfect example of what EXCELLENT rosé is meant to be!  With its beautiful PINK CORAL hue and MILD FRUITY aromas, this wine just begs you to polish off a bottle.  CRISP flavors of WATERMELON, STRAWBERRY, and RHUBARB are in full effect on the finish that is DELIGHTFULLY DRY and BRISK.  As Tuck Beckstoffer put it best, “The design is as simple as the winemaking itself, basic components, clear expression, and simple satisfaction.”

Winery Tasting Notes:  This wine is purely and simply summertime in a glass. The 2015 Hogwash Rose displays a pale salmon-pink color and a beautiful and lively nose that showcases aromas of watermelon candy, red cherries, red current and rose water. Medium bodied, it has incredible vibrancy that combines with its great finish to create a wine that is both a very serious rose wine but has something for everyone.”
