Raeburn Russian River Valley Rosé 2018 Review
Solid, big, American-style rosé with notes of sugar, strawberry and bubblegum. There is a hint of mint and some melon as well. On the palate the alcohol seems to come to the fore, with some apple and melon trailing behind. It’s a great wine for gifting or social gatherings.
