And Why am I Mr Pink Rose 2022, Columbia Valley

The Underground Wine Project began as a collaboration between Washington winemakers Mark McNeilly (Mark Ryan Winery), Trey Busch and Jerry Solomon (Sleight of Hand Cellars). Idle Hands Red Wine was the first release in 2009, with Devil’s Playground Cabernet Sauvignon and the cult favorite Mr. Pink Rosé following soon after. In 2022 we brought the lineup fully under the Mark Ryan Winery Family of Wines with the goal of expanding availability nationally and internationally.

The 2022 Mr. Pink is a dry, fruit-forward rosé with bright strawberry and peach aromatics backed by white florals such as honeysuckle and jasmine. On the palate, ripe strawberries and juicy guava flavors layer over elderflower and orange blossom to lend a lush ripeness and lingering floral finish.
