Sean Minor Pinot Noir Rose Vin Gris, 2013

Name: Sean Minor Pinot Noir Rose Vin Gris, 2013
Variety: Pinot Nior
Region: Carneros
Country: CA, USA
Year: 2013
Price $8.95
Review: "The Vin Gris is a bright and vibrant salmon color with cherry, strawberry, cranberry and ripe watermelon aromas on the nose.  On entry, the wine displays bright strawberry flavors. Throughout the mid-palate and finish, raspberry and cherry fruit characters are balanced with spicy and crisp acidity that linger creating a refreshing and lengthy finish." - Vintage Cellar

I was very intrigued by this wine and found it to be more of a rose than a pinot.  It gave me cherry notes initially but then morphed into more of a dry cranberry.  The flavor was unremarkable and I think I'm not a fan of chilled pinot rose.
