Wine Recommendation—Tassel Ridge Iowa St. Croix Rosé

This Black Bean and Corn Salsa has lots of flavors and the power of hot sauce and pepper. It needs a moderately dry rosé with some prominent fruit flavors, and my choice is Tassel Ridge Iowa St. Croix Rosé. A dry rosé with strawberry, raspberry, peach, and nectarine notes and a slightly drying finish, it’s made from St. Croix grapes grown in our Mahaska County, Iowa, vineyards, Iowa St. Croix Rosé is best served chilled.—Bob Wersen, Owner, Tassel Ridge Winery
