Queen Of Sierra Rose | Sierra Nevada, California, USA | 2019

Taste: Oh yes, yes, yes; this is delicious juice made primarily from a blend of Zinfandel, Grenache Noir and Tempranillo. Almost neon pink in colour this Rose is ready to rock and roll with red lolly, watermelon and strawberry dancing directly across your palate whilst a dash of light spice twirls around the outer edges. Its plush, bright and crunchy with a crisp texture and driven minerality that’s balanced by mouth-watering tea like tannins.

Soph Say’s: You might be wondering why we put this in your box as we promote small batch Australian producers. Well, here’s the deal – Forlorn Hope (the guys behind this wine) make a range of wines here in Australia and a range in California. Their Australian range ‘Songs from Mars’ are all sold out, and we won’t be seeing them for a while as the guys had to leave the country when the borders closed. So, when their super limited Californian produced wines arrived in Oz, we jumped at the chance to get some as we wanted to support Matt and his team and also give you a taste of the fun and fabulous juice they bottle.

Mood: When you are feeling rad and want a wine that’s energetic and filled with interest & good vibes. It’s deliciously fun and for drinking in the sun. Turn up your favourite beats and grab some manchego, fresh olives and lavosh to nibble on whilst you indulge.

Drink now and until 2024. Vegan Friendly.
