Leah Jorgensen Cellars Rogue Valley Fortmiller Vineyard Rosé of Cabernet Franc 2020
Much like the classic quenching rosé wines from France’s Loire Valley, this dry and slightly savory Southern Oregon gem starts off bright, tart and citrusy with persistent pink grapefruit and then meanders into herbal and umami flavors with a little bit of texture on the finish. It’s a delightfully rounded rosé bursting with wonderful aromatics - at first like walking into a garden with fresh, sweet heliotrope, tea rose and sweet pea; then, gets whimsical with a whirl of cotton candy, marshmallow and marzipan notes; finally lingering with fresh fruit, scents of pink or star ruby grapefruit. This wine pairs with anything. Really. But, especially salty bites of serrano ham or prosciutto with ripe melon, olives, crudité, anchovies, sardines, shrimp cocktail, sushi, roasted veggies, charcuterie, smørrebrød, pickled things, quiche, pizza, tartines, Alpine-style goat cheese, gouda, and gruyere.
