Ultra rare bottling from the brilliant Tavel producer. An elite rose. Huge nose of citrus skin and big time wet earth. True gout de terroir. Gorgeous clarity to the berry fruit. Palate has enormous density and structure with unreal freshness. Stunning fruit and power with real grip and sappiness. Structure for 10-15 years. Really brilliant stuff. Getting so elegant with air. Unreal palate presence. Maybe 9.6. — 15 days ago

Deep pink color. Aromas cherry jolly rancher, red candied apple and flint. So good, crisp and cold on a nice day at Carmel-by-the-Sea. — 7 months ago

2016 Vintage. $8.99 at Trader Joe’s. What a great deal. Strawberries on the nose and full-bodied for a Rose. @David L was right on about this wine. We like the 2017 Chateau Trinquevedel better but it’s almost twice the price. Haven’t seen the 2017 in TJ’s nearby yet. Will have to do a side by side with the 2016 Trinquevedel and report back. Just bought the last 7 at the Morgan Hill, CA store. — 7 years ago
