This vintage is a blend. Touriga National (68%), Gamay (16%), Cab Franc (11%) and Grenache (5%). Light salmon color and medium body. Aromas of peach, melon and strawberry. Similar fruits (fresh) on the pallet with a hint of mineral, dried herbs and saline. Nicely savory but I enjoyed previous vintages better. — 3 years ago
It's sunny and just over 30°F today, so fire in the chimnea time! First flames of 2019.
One of our favorite new (2009) AOC's in France, this is 80% Gamay & 20% Poulsard, but the epitome of 100% sparkling strawberry juice! So GD delicious!
One thing to note, last bottle is always the best, we're out of stock now, but don't hold these too long. We've seen bottle variation, likely best to track lot codes on the bottles and make sure your buying a newer version than the last, since we're talking about an NV product. — 5 years ago
Balances and refreshing; strawberry, cherry, rose — 6 years ago
Garnet with thin translucent rim. Light complex nose of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, marshmallow, vanilla, baking spice and oak. Light body of mild pomegranate and red berry cola bring clean acid to the palate with a baking spice, smoke, leather, and earth background. Small velvety tannins leads to a long, slightly dry finish of pepper and cocoa. Very good balance and good structure make this a bargain at $19.99 USD as a sipper or light dish partner. — 8 years ago
Amazing depth at a great price. Spice, dried strawberry, cured beef, perfume, wet earth, and orange peel. Smooth tannin profile, and refreshing punch of acidity. — 9 years ago

I tend to be rather picky about rosé, but I always love those from the Tavel area. This one is consistently satisfying. Glorious salmon-pink color and fresh, juicy flavors of strawberry and watermelon. Great with our Niçoise salad! 60% Grenache, 13% Clairette, 13% Syrah, 10% Cinsault, 3% Mourvèdre, 1% Bourboulenc. 5/15/22. — 2 years ago
Absolutely lovely! Beautiful light salmon color, aromas of strawberry, light taste that would be fantastic with fresh spicy SE Asian food, salad, or seafood. A real spring time patio pounder! — 4 years ago
This is very drinkable wine. Solid at room temperature or great slightly chilled. It almost smells like date or fig with a tough of earth and something tart. The pallet is thinner with good acidity and a touch of effervescent. Initially, upon opening, there was a bit of pomegranate, which still lingers a bit after a day. There’s also a dried strawberry and a bit of dry earth. Good with salmon or chicken. — 5 years ago
Earthy blackberry & strawberry jam. Delicious. — 6 years ago
A rose with body! A touch of strawberry, but not overly sweet. Really a perfect BBQ rose! — 8 years ago
Cherries and dried strawberry with violets all day long. — 9 years ago
Crisp, refreshing yet smooth with flavors of strawberry and ripe melons. Nice accompaniment with Thanksgiving dinner. — 9 years ago
Deeper in color than a trendy Provence rosé this also celebrates grenache in all its glory - red cherry, strawberry, raspberry and white peach on the nose and palate. Good acidity and a lovely red fruit juiciness. Wonderful with food, but equally enjoyable on its own — 2 years ago
Nice and dry and mineral with bright acids. Underripe strawberry, grapefruit zest, touch of melon and white peach. From Perry’s, Provincetown. 07/05/21 — 3 years ago
Cherry, strawberry, cream, raspberry, lemon and stone fruit. Great acidity and balance. — 3 years ago
If strawberry and peach had a little wine baby this would be it. Very nice to have a lower alcohol content. This is my new favorite rose! — 5 years ago
Basque region. Light, spritzy and low alcohol. Think bone dry strawberry-lime soda with an alkaseltzer thrown in. — 5 years ago
Vivid pale orange-pink. Expressive scents of fresh red berries, orange pith, pungent flowers and chalky minerals show excellent focus and lift. Fine-grained and nervy in the mouth, offering zesty red currant, strawberry and blood orange flavors and a spicy jolt of white pepper on the back half. The floral note sneaks back in steadily on a silky, persistent, mineral-driven finish. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, June 2018) — 6 years ago
Strawberry rhubarb, mint, herbs, and mineral zest. Bright fruit, red raspberry and strawberry. Zesty acidity makes this perfect with cued meats. Cranberry fruit finishes with excellent length for rose. Purchased at the winery. — 7 years ago
Fresh strawberry. Quite showy and lovely. — 10 years ago

Very fine mousse but it disappears really quickly.
Strawberries and cream on the nose very vividly. Sweet whipped cream is almost turning into condensed milk. Raspberry, very ripe peach, coissant woth strawberry jam. All sorts of strawberry associations really :)
On the palette mousse slowly fills the mouth, pretty dry on the finish. Brioche, pear, red apple, confiture.
