COSTA ROSA ROSE TASTING SHEET

The wine name: Costa Rosa

Costa Rosa means “rose coast” in Spanish. This wine is meant to remind you of a warm day sitting perhaps on a Mediterranean beach, the Riviera Maya or anywhere in Hawaii. You can almost feel the sun on your face and smell the ocean breeze when you sip a chilled glass of this amazing rosé.

 

Appellation: Paso Robles

Paso Robles lies between San Francisco and Los Angeles and was voted 2013 wine region of the year by Wine Enthusiast Magazine. A long season of warm days and cool nights let the vines mature slowly and impart the grapes with maximum flavors, sugars, acids and the necessary components that make up this beautiful Vino Vargas wine.

 

Grape Varietal: Grenache 50%, Syrah 25%, Mourvedre 25%

Costa Rosa is a blend of three classic Rhone varietals: Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre also known collectively as GSM. Each grape provides a unique aroma, color and taste resulting in a luscious and refreshing wine that is ideal for the hot summer months.
