1 person found it helpfulJun 29th, 2015The best French 2015 rose tasted thus far. 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Cinsault. Fresh sweet cherries and raspberries. Plus just touch of sweetness makes this a delightful drink.

Apr 24th, 2016Not bad but a bit harsh in the mouth at the end. Perhaps some strawberry and peach/pear.

Jul 15th, 2018Exactly what I expect from a Cotes du Rhone, fruit forward abet with more smoke than some. Label described it as fruit and pepper, which I don't think captures the smoke. More eucalyptus than cigar. Strong enough to stand up to a roasted fennel salad and pleasant to drink. Not to heavy.

Mar 10th, 2017Oranges tint of salmon. Smells of orange peel, peach, citrus blossom, dried mango. Secondary of crushed rocks. In my opinion sweeter than expected. Not the best rosé for me but a good bargain.

Sep 7th, 2015Nice fruity rose, but not overpoweringly so. Good all round drinker for summer
