Alpha Estate Hedgehog Vineyard Rosé 2020 Review
This is a an elegant and balanced rosé. Quiet whiffs of strawberries and flowers give off a Provence vibe, but this is all Greece. Good slight depth on the palate gives way to some calm, moderate acidity. This is a well-structured pink that justifies sipping without food. Okay, maybe pair it with a cheese plate.
