This completes the trifecta of wines from La Valle, and this one is wonderful (I still have to write the review for the Solicino), but this wine is a wonderful rose, especially for the price, which is less than $5.

The taste is semi-sweet (okay, just a little more than that). I could say I taste some strawberries, but I can actually taste more than that, including what seems like even candied pastries; I kid you not.

This has a perfect level of sweetness without being considered one of those 'white' blush wines, but also a nice bit of depth to it.

All of the La Valle wines are great, and I have already been turning people onto their red release (a Cabernet Franc).
