Charles Melton Rose Of Virginia 2012

A wonderfully rich style.  Exotic, almost turkish delight aromatics leap from the glass.  The Grenache (46%) shows its true colours in the perfume, and the Cabernet and Shiraz add texture to the palate whilst still allowing the wine to retain a lightness of touch for which the Rose of Virginia is known.  A pinch of Pinot Meunier and Mataro add just the merest hint of spice.
