The knock-out 2006 Sangiovese Jester rose exhibits an atypically dark color for a rose as well as crisp, elegant, gamy sweet cherry and currant flavors intermixed with hints of saddle leather and earth. This bone dry, medium-bodied, well-made effort reflects the Italian heritage of proprietors Frank and Simone Mitolo combined with the sure hand of their classic Australian winemaker, Ben Glaetzer.
