2005 "Loose Ends" Barossa Valley GRENACHE ROSE (Australia)

Startlingly bright and deep magenta-pink color. Sweet, vibrant nose of ripe watermelons, steely minerals, and cherries. Rich, round, yet lively in the mouth, this wine has boatloads of character. Finishes just off-dry, and is nicely balanced. A terrific wine to have with highly seasoned grilled foods on a hot summer day. 88. Was $12.61 at Spec's on Holcombe.
