Tasting - Crafters Union Rose (CAN)

 Wine: Crafters Union Rose

Year: no year visible on the can, assuming 2022 or 2021

Location: California (no more details)

Price: ~$6 at food lion

Color: very light pink/orange color, like the skin of grapefruit flesh

Scent: floral aroma, also a celery leaf sort of smell. Lemongrass, some sulphur notes as well.

Flavor: sweeter than the pinot grigio, almost a little salty. An oceanlike saltiness, not like soy sauce. Reminds me of when you get water in your mouth swimming at the beach (but in a good way). Peaches! Like peach rings.

General: I liked it. Not typically a sweet wine kinda guy but this was very tolerable and enjoyable.

Wine folly talks about a bunch of flavors I don't taste, but can see the melon and rhubarb potentially.

Drank this with a Crafters Union Pinot Grigio and a meal of fish/shrimp tacos (image of food below, CU Rose review in the previous blog post).
