A rose for the ages. This is NOT a pop-and-pour. This is a wine that you age then decent and marvel at its brilliance. Fairly weighty, dusty smoky cranberries and strawberries faint hint of citrus. Nice tannic end with acidity around the edges.

Love this dark rose. Supple, complex and intriguing.

Singular as far as roses go. Even Tempier ain’t young at two years. Smoked strawberries. Cherry. Superb acid. Little tannin. Unique. Tart little blueberries, but the funky ones. Needs time

So tight even after 6 hours of air. Really singular. Not much in common with its Provençal brethren (sistren?). Cranberry, rose petals, cherry heering. Massive tannins, little discernible heat. Angular. Attenuated nose. Hold for now, but if you must drink, decant the day before. Fun wine to geek out on.

Wow, game changer Rose for me. Rhone style blend with all of the puzzle pieces in the right place. Would be interested to try this again with more age. Expensive Rose but glad I got ahold of a bottle. Check out the color.
