Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points
"A longtime leader in Central Coast rosés, this vintage of Riviera succeeds as usual. A very pale pink in the glass, it offers red apple, chalk and lime juice aromas on the nose. The palate is bright with rose petal and light bubblegum flavors while very tactile and brisk in structure."
Vinous, 90 Points
"The 2023 Rosé Riviera is bright, aromatic and nicely perfumed. Cranberry, white pepper and crushed rocks abound in this tasty, nervy Rosé. The 2023 is a bit richer than some vintages, but that style works quite well in balancing the bracing style Doug Margerum favors."
Winemaker Notes:
"Very pronounced strawberry and tangerine aromas with floral notes, hints of passion fruit and orange blossom. Not shy at all right after bottling. Dry, crisp and dancing on the palate. Just right fruitiness and framboise flavors that include subtle rubarb, sweet tarts, and a dry savory finish. The fruitiness is balanced with a touch of mouthwatering acidity and plenty of verve."
Alcohol: 12.5%
