Decoy Rosé 2017

Decoy

Rosé

2017

Origin: California

Retail Price: $25.99

Tasting Notes: Duckhorn never takes the easy route to their wines. This rosé is a perfect example of shared resources and talents from all their operations. Understated and elegant, with a complex blend of syrah, vermentino, carignan, and pinot noir. Muted spice, zesty effervescence, and great fruit aromatics.

Wine Rating System

Our reviewers are given a topic (varietal, drinking occasion, price) six times a year and asked to select 3-5 wines that fit that criteria for review. Wine reviews include brief tasting notes, a rating and the wine’s retail price (which can vary from store to store and market to market). Unless noted otherwise, the price reflects a 750-ml. bottle. If you’re a beverage professional with a specialty in wine and you’re interested in participating in the panel, please contact managing editor Kyle Swartz at kswartz@epgmediallc.com or 203-855-8499 x2225.
