Wine Critic Review: "Confetti! Sweet Pink Rosé is an incredibly approachable and luscious sweet pink wine. It is made from a blend of French grape varietals and carries plump, ripe strawberry flavors with soft floral aromas and a refreshing, juicy finish."

References: There is not notes for Rosé listed specifically in Wine Folly. Looked at 2 of the grapes included in the wine. On page 189, Zinfandel is listed as having a notes of blackberry, strawberry, peach preserves, cinnamon, sweet tobacco. The strawberry is very strong in the wine, it is in both the aroma and flavor. The sweetness of the peach preserves definitely came through. I didn't notice any of the other notes. From page 138, Muscat Blanc has notes of orange blossom, meyer lemon, mandarin orange, ripe pear and honeysuckle. To be honest I didn't get any of these notes but I did get the sweetness I am used to with a Muscat wine.
My review: I really liked this wine. It had a very light body and was sweet which I find enjoyable. It had aromas of strawberry, watermelon and cotton candy. The flavor was similar to the aromas. I can admit that this wine was slightly out of balance due to how intensely sweet it was. However I enjoyed how sweet it was so it didn't bother me. Will be buying again.
