I always get a tinge of anxiety when I taste the new vintage of an old favorite. Thankfully d'Oupia is still delicious. A little more austere and bigger/bolder than a Provence rose, but this one hits all the marks for me, including its on-trend nearly neon pink color. "Drink me"!!

Bit earthy nose. Soft tannins. Bit leathery. Great after a terrible Malbec that we poured out :)
