2015 Dragonette ROSÉ $24.95

Winery Tasting Notes:  “This flavorful energetic and completely dry Rosé pairs beautifully with all sorts of dishes, from appetizers, to mildly spicy foods, and everything in between. We like to enjoy a glass with olives while we chop vegetables and fire up the grill for the main courses. The production numbers are down significantly in 2015, but the quality is terrific. We suggest stocking up as this wine has been selling out earlier and earlier each year. The excitement is already building for the 2015, a worthy successor to the last several vintages of Rosé, all of which have been featured in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times and San Francisco Chronicle among many other publications. ”

Staff Review:  JANA KOSMATA – Oh, please don’t moan that you don’t like Rose’s…the Dragonette Rose is one of my all-time favorites!  And please don’t believe all the hype that there is no such thing as a good Rose’s because the Dragonette Rose is one that is huge on flavor and small on alcohol level which makes it a great all day sipping wine.  The Dragonette brothers should be very proud of this juicy little number because she is super sexy and carries a 1-2 punch the second it hits your tongue. Not too sweet with just a hint of fruit and a finish that begs for the next sip, it is refreshing and crisp with tons of flavor that goes great with appetizers or anything cooked on the grill.  I enjoy it with just about everything these days as Rose’s seem to be what I lean towards more often.  I was super excited to see that Drew and the boys had decided to share this wine with our wine club members and that you will be able to discover something new, you just might like!
