2016 Josh Cellars Rosé by Joseph Carr ($10)

We're quickly coming up on Valentine's Day, and what better wine to have in your glass than a rosé.

This "Josh" rosé from Joseph Carr is a nice one. At 12.5% alcohol by volume (ABV), it's a dry wine but the bright, crisp fruit flavors and acidity give a bit of a sweet sensation on the palate with 5 g/L of residual sugar.

According to their data sheet, this rosé is a blend of 89% Barbera and 11% Muscat that provides hints of strawberries and peach while finishing with a mouthwatering citrus flavor.

So, if you're looking to raise a nice glass of pink wine for Valentine's Day, check this one out. Cheers!
