What the critics are saying about SoloRosa...

SoloRosa 2001 Rosé

The Washington Post, June 12, 2002
(Ben Giliberti) "SoloRosa is among the best new wines of the year."

Wine Country Living Magazine, October 2002
(Thom Elkjer) "SoloRosa. American Original … . A brash American contrast with the politely pink wines of Provence. SoloRosa is a big, meaty rosé with plenty of punch, yet still delivers the berries, spices and lip-smacking finish rosé lovers crave."

www.JancisRobinson.com, June 17, 2002
(Jancis Robinson, author and Master of Wine) "Rosé is emerging as a distinct category again, quite untarnished by the White Zin thing. This is a climate where a dry rosé should be a boon and wine writer Jeff Morgan should enjoy great success with his well packaged SoloRosa 2001, a very dark rose-coloured blend of Sangiovese and at least three other grapes."

The New York Times Online, March 21, 2002
(Leslie Sbrocco) "SoloRosa scores with its inaugural release. Delightful."

Fort Worth Star-Telegram, February 12, 2003
(Renie & Sterling Steves) "SoloRosa livens the palate with seductive fruitiness and a bit of spice. This rosé may become a classic, especially with hot chilies of the Southwest."

Denver Post, November 23, 2002
(Tara Q. Thomas) "Drink pink … the palate-whetting SoloRosa."

Atlanta Journal Constitution, October 31, 2002
WINE OF THE WEEK (Jane Garvey) "The wine is slap-yo-mamma delicious!"

Oakland Tribune, August 14, 2002
(Charles Olken from Connoisseur's Guide to California Wine) "2001 Solo Rosa Rosé … is the best of the new breed of rosé that is emerging. It may be pink in color, but it avoids the mawkish sweetness that bedevils most of its peers while capturing a most engaging level of bright, outgoing fruit. Here is a wine that is changing the way America looks at the rosé category."

The Dallas Morning News, July 3, 2002
WINE OF THE WEEK (Diane Teitelbaum) "The wine has spicy, fruity aromas and lots of flavor. Serve it chilled and with almost everything."

Houston Chronicle, June 19, 2003
½ (Michael Lonsford) "A bright, almost cherry-red dry rosé with good flavor, structure and acidity. The wine is very good for a first effort, and the response has been quite favorable."

The Santa Rosa Press Democrat, July 2002
½ - One of the two top scoring rosés tasted.

San Francisco Chronicle, June 19, 2002
"Lots of juicy raspberry and cranberry fruit here, good acidity and structure to stand up to red meat"

Seattle Times, July 2002
(Paul Gregutt) "Fresh, ripe and extra rich, it delivers the flavor goods."

San Diego Union Tribune, April 22, 2002
(Robert Whitley of Copely News Service) "If I were rating Morgan’s effort (with SoloRosa), I'd give him a perfect 100."

Miami Herald, June 16, 2002
(Fred Tasker) "Morgan knows what he’s talking about (regarding rosé). SoloRosa - a dry, toasty drink with tart cranberry flavors … ."
