“Pink color. Aromas of ripe strawberry, peony, yogurt, and peach pie with a silky, vibrant, dryish light body and a polished, appealing, mediumlength melon rind, pink peppercorns, and rosemary finish with no oak flavor. A delicious and refreshing rose for summer; balanced and packed with dry-yet-fruity layers.” – May, 2019

Sentinel 2012 Red
91 POINTS Wine Enthusiast
“Cabernet Sauvignon (70%) makes up the majority of this wine along with Merlot (23%), Malbec (5%) and Petit Verdot. It’s aromatically brooding, with notes of black fruit, toffee, moist soil and a floral top note. The palate pulls few punches with its rich, high-octane flavors and firm tannins but manages to keep it all in balance.” -November 2015
