Limpid orange-pink. Fresh strawberry and blood orange scents, along with floral and white pepper nuances that gain strength as the wine opens up. Juicy, focused and light on its feet, offering subtly sweet red berry and floral pastille flavors and a bracing jolt of white pepper on the back half. Clings with very good tenacity on the finish, leaving behind a suggestion of candied rose. Drink 2017-2019. (JR) (6/2017)
The folks at Banshee take their rosé production very seriously. They employ hand harvesting and whole-cluster pressing of grapes (in 2016, the blend is 48% Grenache, 22% Pinot Noir, 16% Syrah, 14% Barbera) designated for rosé from the beginning, rather than bleeding some runoff juice of a wine destined to be a red. The primary new vineyard source for this aromatic and bright rosé is biodynamically farmed, and the attention to detail from start to finish shows through in the bottle. From Banshee: "The wine is a pale rose and peach combination in color and lip smacking as it goes down. It also possesses the depth to pair with everything from the lightest amuse-bouche to the main course."
