Martin Woods Rose, Willamette Valley, USA 2019 Lafite but the Cycladic Assyrtiko grapeThis blended ros is composed of 40% Pinot Noir, 20% Gamay Noir, 30% Gewrztraminer and 10% Riesling. Despite the aromatic white grapes, it's the Pinot and Gamay that dominate, with big bodied flavors of strawberries and cherries, apples and citrus. It's more substantial than all Pinot ross, yet less refined, with a chunky mouthfeel.
