2007 Toad Hollow Pinot Noir Rose

Tasted this Rose at room temperature. Bouquet was very strong cherry and strawberry. The taste was also very strong cherry and strawberry. Tasted just like Minute Maid Berry Punch--no kidding. Very sweet. If trying to get someone interested in wine, this is an easy introduction.

I bought this to make a client happy. They're happy. I'm...kinda sitting with my upper lip scrunched up like I just drank a glass of cheap orange juice after brushing my teeth. Since I'm not a "Rose" person, it's probably unfair that I offer any opinion on this wine. Nevertheless, this wine is flat, sour and characterless at the same time. No bouquet. No complexity. No real flavor other than floral-hinted alcohol. If someone out there LOVES Rose wine, maybe they could clue me into the world of all-things-Rose. But for now, it's a blah buzz. As for food pairings, I'd try Sprite, maybe Mello Yello. And a Snickers bar. Suffice it to say, I won't buy any more Rose until I know what I'm doing...and I'm not holding out huge hopes.
