Juicy, dry, tangy.
JoieFarm and Heidi Noble (the original owner) has been making rose since 2004, long before pink became so trendy.
I've not tried this wine since the 2018 vintage, and under new ownership they have changed the name from 're-think pink' to simply 'rose' but is still made from Pinot Noir and Gamay.
It has a ruby-salmon hue and notes of cedar and crab apples, ruby grapefruit, beet greens and wild red berries alongside juicy orange slices. It's snappy and dry with tart red fruit and nice buoyancy. Good bones, length and structure overall.
Pair: Seafood, white meats, cheese and charcuterie, salads and curries or spicy chilled noodle salads.
