Orin Swift 2020 Fragile Rosé

  Another great new release from Dave Phinney at Orin Swift - extremely limited. Fragile is the inaugural rosé release from Orin Swift's Department 66 winery in Maury, France. Pale salmon in color with a cherry blossom fringe, the wind brooms with perfumed floral notes, blood orange zest, and a hint of wild aniseed. Casually acidic with soft saline notes on the entry, the wind is vibrant and bright with dancing red currant flavors, crystallized strawberries, and a pink grapefruit core. An incisive finish with red berry skin extract is balanced with clean and lifting acidity, hallmarks often found in Orin Swift wine, known for its bold character and nuanced craftsmanship.Blend: predominately a blend of Grenache with small percentages of Syrah and Carignan.
