The Tasting Panel gives this 2022 rendition a whopping 94-point score:
A delightful wine that exudes elegance and sophistication. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of ripe strawberries, raspberries, and watermelon, along with floral notes of rose petals and orange blossom. The fruit aromas are complemented by a subtle hint of spice, which adds a layer of depth to the wine.
On the palate, the Sonoma Rose 2022 is crisp and refreshing, with vibrant acidity that balances the wine's sweetness. The flavors of fresh red berries are pronounced, with a slightly tart finish that lingers on the tongue. The wine has a medium body and a silky texture that makes it easy to drink.
It’s not only their top-rated Rosé, but one of their top-rated wines of the entire Sonoma Coast.
The winery says:
Salmon pink with golden highlights, this wine has the classic 'eye of the partridge' color. Bright and expressive on the nose, with aromas of honeysuckle, Asian pear, and Fuji apple followed by notes of vanilla and orange blossom. Flavors of grapefruit, tangerine, and lemon zest fill the palate with lively characteristics. This wine has nice acidity with a light but satisfying finish.
Easily the finest and most complete Belle Glos Rosé to date.
By the way, maybe because this is so good, the winery has used the pink wax capsule that they use on the Belle Glos Pinot Noirs.
