REVIEW Robert Hall Winery Restaurant Wine, June 2008:

2007 Robert Hall Rosé de Robles –Four Stars –“Medium full pink with a purplish tint. Full bodied and intensely flavored, this is a fairly rich dry rose, with excellent length. It tastes of pepper, watermelon, raspberry and lemon zest.” — Ronn Wiegand
