    What We’re Drinking – Zolo Rosé

    Wine Reviews
    1 min read
    The color is a very pale pink. The nose shows cherries and strawberries. On the palate, candied cherries and strawberries get a bit of balance, tart and bitter, from lemon zest. This is a pleasant warm-weather sipper to pair with hot dogs and a back yard. Recommended. 86 points. DBH

    The color is absolutely lovely, a true pink, with amazing clarity. The nose is soft, with fresh strawberries and florals. On the palate, it is full-bodied and fruity, ripe with sweet strawberries and tart cranberry. The finish adds a zing of citrus. This is a terrific value and a very

    What We’re Drinking – Zuccardi “Tito” Red Blend

    The nose is lovely, sending up aromas of blueberry pie and coffee. On the palate, the wine takes a minute, starting flat and then showing more subtle dark fruit flavors, blueberry and boysenberry, with some cherry on the mid-palate. Coffee follows from the nose, with some milk chocolate, too. This

    The color is not quite opaque, becoming a dusty garnet in the center. The nose is a real treat, redolent with vanilla, black currant and sweet blueberry pie. Dark fruits, mulberry, elderberry, and blueberry, blend with coconut cream in flaky pastry. More serious herbal touches show on the mid-palate, hints

    Guava and orange blossom aromas explode from the glass. Guava pastry, tart kiwi, and sour apple and show on the palate, which is remarkably complex for this price point. Drink with pressure cooker peppery fried chicken and buttery biscuits. Highly Recommended. 90 points.  DBH WHO: Cameron Hughes DESIGNATION: Lot 556

    Red fruit shows on the nose, sweet cherries and tart raspberries. On the palate, the tart fruit leads the sweet. Raspberries are in front, with touches of cranberry, then cherries far behind. Touches of herbs and pencil lead give depth, anchoring the wine to hints of freshly turned earth. Black

    Aromas of fresh-cut honey crisp apples and white florals are lovely. The palate is surprisingly dry and crisp after the eboulient nose. It’s lemon and lime, acid and tautness, clean and ready to clean the palate no matter you’re eating. This is a food wine, not a sipper, so enjoy

    What We’re Drinking – Prophecy “High Priestess” and “The Star

    “High Priestess” Sauvignon Blanc 2016 The color is almost completely transparent, with the lightest yellow/green tinting. The nose screams New Zealand, with gooseberry and white grapefruit. There is a hint of green pepper on the under-side of the nose. The palate leads with gooseberry, then shoots quickly into a more
