A bright, pale to mid-pink colour. A riot of raspberries, strawberries and cream on the nose, quite floral too, with hints of garrigue herbs (oregano, rosemary, fennel). The palate is beautifully smooth and gently creamy, with flavours of red berry and currant fruits and white peach, offset by a touch of granny smith apple tartness, along with gentle spice and herb notes, the merest hint of tannin and really juicy acidity. This is serious rosé, to match the best Provence has to offer, with a lingering sweet-sour finish. Cracking stuff, and great to drink now, or to age for a year or two. |
