Palate
Floral and pretty, the hot pink 2013 Flirtation rosé of merlot offers up aromas of wildflowers and fresh strawberries that are enhanced on the pallet with a supple presentation of classic, strawberry shortcake, that finishes clean and round.
Growing Conditions
“Early, even and excellent” are three words being used to describe this year’s growing season… A warm, dry spring brought early bud break, helped with canopy vigor and berry size and created ideal conditions for flowering and fruit set under sunny skies. With the exception of one heat spike in late June/early July, temperatures were consistently in the zone for optimal vine activity, resulting in notably healthy vines as fruit went through veraison and started ripening.
