Fresh, lean, and lacking tension. Still I respect Charles & Charles for their mostly successful efforts at honest table wine.

Ripe sweet berries, medium long finish, but not cloying. Great at the price.

Strawberry and lime up front. Apricot, mild floral.

Charles is in charge of my taste buds! Seriously though, Scott Baio is just terrible now. But this wine isn’t. Great taste for the price point!

71/16/8 blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre with a smidgen of Cab Sauv and Counoise. Light golden yellow with a hint of red pigment, excellent clarity. Some floral-vanilla aroma, maybe. Clean lemon-cherry flavors, good acid, rounded mouthfeel, cherry, and mineral finish. Later, red plum and tangerine peel flavors emerge. Dry, good value.

This rosé always impresses me. Or at least makes me happy I took it home so take that as you will. 2017 is the right combo of rich berries of the red sort a bit of pepper and a swash YES SWASH (if that’s not a word don’t wanna know) of wet river stone. A friend who won’t leave you. They may not save you but they will be there to lean on.

Not too bad. Friendly, easy to swill type of rosé with just enough interest and minerality to let you say "hey! Good quality for price I win! And I wine.
