John Schreiner Review: LaStellina Rosato

This is a rosé with Merlot and Cabernet Franc from three and four-year-old vines in the winery’s Selona vineyard near Osoyoos Lake. The wine’s appeal begins with a lovely rose petal hue in the glass. There are hints of strawberry, raspberry and cherry on the nose which carry through to the palate. The texture is juicy with just a touch of residual sweetness.
