Misha's Vineyard
The Soloist Rosé 2024 750ml

94/100 Excellent “There’s instant impact from the bouquet with a fragrant, floral and fruity lift as the wine engages the senses, aromas of fresh red cherries and strawberry flesh, some wild red flowers with a seam of savoury spice showcases style and region. Satin-smooth as the wine touches the palate, super fine fruit tannins and plenty of acidity deliver a mouthfeel of freshness and youth. Balanced and well made with a plush salivating texture. Best drinking from day of purchase through end of summer 2027.” Nov 2024 (Cameron Douglas, MS, www.camdouglasms.com)

  95/100 “Bright, even, pale blush pink. The nose is full, packed with aromas of rose, cherry and raspberry. Medium-bodied, aromas of raspberry and cherry entwined with rose and black pepper. The creamy mouthfeel provides a smooth entry, flaunting rich rose fragrant, juicy fruit and black pepper unfold and linger to an elegant, long finish. A captivating Pinot Rosé with rich fragrant, and juicy, refreshing appeal. Serve as an aperitif or match with wagyu bresaola over the next 3 years. The fruit was lightly crushed, retaining stalks, into picking bins for 6 hours. The clear juice was fermented in stainless steel to 13.5% alc, 2 g/l RS. A portion of 3% was fermented in older oak. 19/20 pts (95 pts) Dec 2024 (Candice Chow, @candicewinechat www.raymondchanwinereviews.com)
