Sosie Wines Rosé of Syrah 2021 Review
Does this rosé have oak on it? And does that say 100 percent Syrah? Well, the latter is definitely true. But the former? Well, yes! It was fermented in neutral oak, which is very fun and unique to this category of wine. Because this orange-hued rosé is made from Syrah, it has deep wells of fruit for days. The nose is a bit floral with some juicy fruit, think watermelon or raspberries, and an almost undeniable note of vanilla but no oak. There is a density to this wine, but it is broken up by great active acidity. What a ride, this wine. We also enjoy the high-ish alcohol which adds to the depth. This is a rosé for the Chardonnay drinker.
