title: Zaca Mesa 2016 Z Gris Rosé (Santa Ynez Valley)
description: This winery has been making rosé for more than two decades, and nails the recipe especially well this vintage. The brilliant salmon-pink wine shows watermelon, light red cherry and a stony quality on the nose, while the grippy palate engages from the get-go with red plum, riverstone and gravel on the tip of the sip. Strawberry flavors carry through the strong acidity, and the finish is all about texture.
variety: Rosé
designation: Z Gris
