Alexander Valley Vineyards Dry Rosé of Sangiovese 2022 Review
Harry and Maggie Wetzel purchased the Cyrus Alexander homestead in the '60s hoping to create a thriving agricultural lifestyle. They raised their children among the vines and today, the family's fourth generation continues to the do the same. Made from the Sangiovese grape in a region known for Cabernet Sauvignon, the unique combination of this high-acid grape with the California sunshine creates a distinct flavor profile of stone fruit, watermelon, and tart red berries. It’s juicy, round, and ready to pair with food.
