Medium salmon pink. Clear and transparent.
Stuffy, earthy aromas of mushroom, wet logs, forest floor. Slightly vegetal and savoury.
Med plus plus acidity, med low tannin, and med low body. Welcome to the funky town. Floral sensations intersperse with savoury notes and barnyard funk. Fruit profile leans toward red cherry, with a bit of raspberry and strawberry.

This vintage is darker and more concentrated than in the past, and at 14,5%, this is not your standard rose'. Raspberry, strawberry, an overall smoky/earthy feel, and minimal funk for a natural wine. A touch of sweetness shows up on the finish. Consistently good, year after year. — 8 years ago
