Some nice heft in the skin astringency on the finish gives this one character, alongside lactic, mineral and leesy notes. Shows Pinot noir flavors - cherry, strawberry with a rounded acid mouthfeel. Drinks well despite its age, just a stray bottle I found, marked down but highly drinkable. A nice style of PN rosé

Oct 19th, 2022First summery day of the year, so cracked this one open. The label promised “fresh strawberry and raspberry aromas”, but does it deliver? Salmon pink with orange tinge, excellent clarity. Not much in the nose initially. Strawberry and raspberry flavors, later, a touch of bubble gum emerges. Mineral finish, good acidity, slightly lactic. Dry to off-dry. A good start to warm weather.
