The 2010 Señorío de Sarría Viñedo No 5 Rosado exhibits aromas of strawberry, watermelon, tomato, herbs and some floral notes. It tastes a bit fruity (watermelon) but the earthiness outweighs the fruit. The finish is medium-short and a little on the bitter side. This wine is not totally my style as I prefer more fruit, but I was surprised by how good this was and enjoyed it quite a bit. We found it to be even a little better on day 2.
