No detailed notes but it had nice flavor and was nicely rounded without too much acidity.

Fading fruit, but beautifully balanced with a pomelo nose. The acidity cut through cheese course like a hot knife.

Very light and refreshing, good with apps and nibbles, but not a serious food wine IMO.

Labeled as 13% abv. Screwcap. According to my notes, this may be a rose' of Syrah. Really pleasant dry rose'. Pink/coral color. Nose of red berries and citrus. Nice acid. Good chilled or at room temperature. Appealing raspberry nuance.

PnP, chilled. Had this wine with the Thanksgiving hors d'oeuvres, and was enjoyed by all. TN is pretty much identical to the bottle consumed in July. Strawberries, and maybe a whiff of watermelon on the nose. Dry on the palate with lots of strawberry (especially after it warms up a bit), sufficient acidity to remain cleansing, and a touch of minerality. Best if enjoyed while fresh, but the wine will certainly hold for a year or so.

PnP. This is the first bottle of the latest release, and it did not disappoint. Strawberries, and maybe a whiff of watermelon on the nose. Dry on the palate with lots of strawberry (especially after it warms up a bit), sufficient acidity to remain cleansing, and a touch of minerality. Great food wine for light fare. Best if enjoyed while fresh, but the wine will certainly hold for a year or so.

I like it, but it's not as complex, and delicious, as the Tablas Creek Dianthus.

I thought it was the last of last year's stash, but it looks like I have 1 more bottle. Well, that is a good thing. It was clean and crisp and a pleasure to drink. Tonight's dinner of grilled chicken over arugula called for Rose.

Popped and poured and drank over 3+ hours. Aroma has a creamy and strawberry sense. The taste is a bit straightforward, with some of the strawberry. A good level of acidity hits on the mid-palate.

Popped and poured with penne & marinara sauce. Aroma has some watermelon to it along with some earthiness and perfume. Taste has some strawberry and tart apple.

This is a great rose for pairing with food. Has a spicey note to it, and it went well with grilled burgers and veggies.

Very nice rose from Scherrer. Light and refreshing with subtle hints of strawberry and red cherry. Seems a bit lighter than previous vintages but still really tasty. Still have some '12 so will be doing a side by side to see how it plays out.

Beautiful ripe melon and stawberry fruit on the nose. Palate is much more dry, crisp and structured, without the fruit really showing up as much. Very nice with food and a good way to start off the Scherrer tasting.

Very pretty pale pink. Light red fruit and fresh raw carrots on the nose. Fresh and lively palate, very dry, with ample acidity and a crisp and clean finish, though maybe a bit short. Nice rosé.

12.0% alcohol. Copper-pink color. Pretty nose of strawberry and cherry, with a slate edge to it. In the mouth, crisp, tart, and delicious, with bright fruit and tangy acidity. A really delicious, refreshing rose. A-
