We don’t know of too many places more suited for a relaxing afternoon of wine tasting than Delfino Winery. A warm summer day with blue skies, overlooking a pond and beautiful valley views, surrounded by a vineyard sipping rose, what could be better?
We tasted a several wines, from the fruity and likeable Tempranillo, to the spot on ’08 Syrah. But the stars for us were the rosés. (Maybe it was the warm weather, or maybe our new-found appreciation of rosés.) The winery crafts two rosés – one from Merlot, and one from Zinfandel – and we loved them both. Fruity and dry – perfect summer sippers.
Delfino also has a cozy guest cottage B&B which looks like a perfect place to hang out while visiting the Roseburg/Umpqua Valley wine tasting area. It advertises a hot tub, lap pool, walking trails, complimentary wine and more. It looks wonderful!
