Undeniable symbiosis between richness and vibrancy. Still has a bit of effervescence, but more open than the last couple vintages at this stage in its life. Stone fruit and saline/mineral on the nose, middle weighted on the palate and a pleasant bitter note on the finish. Maybe not the best rose I've ever had, but the overall balance is rarely matched in a rose wine. — 8 years ago

Claude Geoffray is the master. I am not worthy. Nobody gets purity, intensity, texture, and balance in such perfect symbiosis. A little lighter color than some of his other single vineyard or special cuvée wines, but the intensity of aromas is striking: massive granitic minerality, piercing gamay hard cherry fruit, held together by a feral animal thing. Electric in the mouth, with sparking cracked granite and tingly berries. Long crisp finish. Zowie! Actually complemented my Pakistani kebab take-out too. Mille grazie to Fass Selections for bringing this in. — 8 years ago
