The aroma has a soft floral note, with soft minerality and the same grassiness found in the Blanco, not overpowering but complemented with cooked agave’s prune essence and light berry which all the notes can also be perceived on the palate upon sipping and savoring. I was delighted that even though the taste was indeed wine-forward it was not overpowering and didn’t drown my tongue in flowery notes. A very soft taste with bits of minerality still being distinct. I was impressed and instantly thought this was one of the best, yet few, Rosa Blancos I could enjoy. I look forward to comparing it to others in a side-by-side
