Beaux Freres Grenache Rose 08

Yep, a Beaux Freres wine at $15. It's a 100% grenache Rose, from grapes grown at the Beaux Freres Estate Vineyard. They make about 100 cases each year. Primarily, it's what the Etzels drink at home, and they share it with longtime customers and friends.

The Beaux Freres Grenache Rose is from the great 2008 vintage, a good pairing with Thanksgiving turkey, and has all the usual meticulous winemaking skills expected from winemaker Mike Etzel.

Light and a bit spritzy, this is a delicate rose, dry and berry flavored.

This is a nice wine to offer white wine drinkers at holiday dinners.
