Just a yummy and juicy rosé with a serious mind, the 2014 Mulderbosch Cabernet Rose is crisp, but not biting in acidity, the wine's threshold sugar makes it all perfect. Bright to deep pink color, light red hue; fresh strawberries and raspberries in the nose; medium bodied, nicely packed on the palate; off dry to medium sweet, nice acidity, well balanced; ripe red fruit flavors; lively aftertaste. I would pair this one with sashimi. (Tasted: June 22, 2015, San Francisco, CA)
