Keller Estate's Syrah-based 2007 Sonoma Coast Rose is a delight. I'm always searching for a rose from California that's not too pink and not too sweet (not to mention a lot of fun to drink & great with food) and this one fits the bill just right. Made for the winery founder's 75th birthday, this medium pink-hued quaffer offers up delightful aromas of watermelon Jolly Rancher candy (always a favorite), caramel, chamomile, rose water and a kiss of pink grapefruit...
The palate boasts medium to med+ acidity (not too tart!) and mellow flavors that echo the nose along with mild cherry cola notes. The finish is pleasant, the balance is good, and you can probably guess by now I'm sold on this pink! At $28 smackers a little steep for a rose, but if you're down to splurge I think you'll really enjoy.
