WTN: 2013 Matthiasson Rosé

2013 Matthiasson Rosé - USA, California, Napa Valley (5/10/2014)
Crisp, focused and refreshing. There's light berry fruit and a persistent, richer than expected finish. Very enjoyable, and at 11.5% alcohol it is easy to enjoy a lot of it.

Steve does nice work with those grapes, most of which are from Yolo county. I think there's a bit of Grenache in the '13 also.
I don't know just how I'm supposed to play this scene, but I ain't afraid to learn...
