A great bubbly to serve to those who don't like champagne. A hint of sweetness with a touch of pear. And the label is just plain cool. — 10 years ago
I got the pic via search and I think it's from @Richard Steinberg cellar tracker notes consistently identify a "spritzy" quality to this wine on the pop and it was absolutely there. I'm curious as to where this comes from because I have also seen it repeatedly on the '05 Clos Des Papes. Anyway, the spritz detracted a little as it was still there, although less pronounced after 1.5 hours in the decanter. However the wine was not compromised. Tannins are resolved. Fruit still there but it's no longer very vibrant. A good not great wine. Saxum can do little wrong in my eyes but this '04 is on it's denouement. Drink now. — 10 years ago

What can I say, I love this stuff! Have drinken quite a bit of it this week and as always love the slight spritz and balance initially...so drinkable, but new takeaways for me...cand def age this wine; and calling it a Rose is a bit of a disservice to its versatility. Held up all the way theough a meal of shrimp and heirlooms to Filet Mignon with Port/Gorgonzola sauce. Just amazing as always...my desert island wine. — 10 years ago
