title: Sevtap 2012 Awesome Rosé Sangiovese (Santa Ynez Valley)
description: Nearly purple in color, it is equally intense in flavor, almost like sipping a straight red wine, save for the low alcohol. This bottling, made by Turkish-born, former oil rig construction worker Ertugrul “Art” Sevtap, begins with candied pecans and other nutty aromas, then brings red apple, light herbals, and hazelnut to the palate. Pair with everything from cedar plank salmon to turkey burgers.
variety: Sangiovese
designation: Awesome Rosé
