Made my latest haul at EmpireWine.com. Got the Sabine Rosé recommended here by Leslie Sbrocco:
Leslie Sbrocco's Savvy Sipping: Summer Wine Stock Up
I've also had the Balbo Rosé and the Moscato, very delicious & refreshing for summer weather. Looking forward to seeing what Dr. Frank has to offer (Finger Lakes, you gotta love it!) and the Yalumba Sangiovese Rosé. But the Whispering Angel is by far the most exquisite, so delicate.
Here's the full accounting of my purchase, along with the Winery Notes that conveniently accompanied my online purchase:
* Bieler 'Sabine' Rose Cabernet/Grenache/Syrah 2010 - 40% Syrah, 30% Grenache 15% Cinsault 15% Cabernet sauvignon. There is the usual and wonderful underlying raspberry, bing cherry, and wild strawberry with a spicy minerality that keeps the fruit in check. The acidity is a bit brighter than the 09.
* Crios de Susana Balbo Rose of Malbec 2010 - A beautiful, deep, vibrant rosé color. Has a surprising amount of glycerin and body for a rosé wine, and beautiful aromas of ripe wild strawberries.
* Salmon Run Dr. Frank 'Rainbow Rose' - intensely fruity character and sweet palate, this is the wine for all occasions.
* Innocent Bystander 'Frizzante' Pink Moscato 2010 - Innocent Bystander's pale pink 375 ml. serve of Moscato is a refreshing sipper, offering delicious aromas of watermelon, red apples, and turkish delight.
* D'Esclans 'Whispering Angel' Rose 2010 - Look for ripe red fruits, with hints of minerals and flowers. This delicious bottle is a perfect, easy-quaffing wine for lunch, dinner or a delicious glass anywhere. ~ Winery Notes
* Yalumba Y Series Sangiovese Rose 2009 - has aromas of wild strawberries, lavender, sweet vanilla and a watermelon cocktail. ~Winery Notes
