Eye of the Needle Winery 2016 Moments Rosé, Columbia Valley, $15
By Great Northwest Wine on May 3, 2017
Best Buy! Woodinville winemaker Bob Bullock, proud member of the 12th Man at CenturyLink, quarterbacks this blush-style pink made with Chenin Blanc and Sangiovese, which will tackle a summertime thirst with its tasty mix of strawberry, Fuji apple and raspberry that’s finished nicely dry at just 0.5% residual sugar. This bottling marked Eye of the Needle’s first proprietary effort with rosé, and it merited a gold medal at the 2017 Cascadia Wine Competition.
Rating: Outstanding!
Production: 303 cases
