May 22nd, 2021This wine is delicately tinted light salmon. Its nose is quite fruity - cherries, strawberries, orange - but also graced with a minerality that serves as a bedrock base for all that beauty. The palate brings ripe red fruit, a hefty mouthfeel and a zippy acidity into play. It’s great for salads, and even better just for sipping.

Nose has blood orange flesh, cut strawberries, wet sand and dried orange pith.
Palate has ripe strawberry, squeeze of orange, lemon zest, ripe peach peel and minor mineral notes. Medium finish, uncomplicated and easily enjoyable.
This bottle is in a nice spot at two years past current vintage. Can hold until 2022-ish, of anyone has that level of patience for a fun Beaujolais rosé!

Jan 19th, 2020Beautiful tonight, minor citrus with strawberry, and light sour cherry on the nose. Palate is uncomplicated, tart/sweet cherry, orange zest, light mineral and herbal notes, under-ripe peach?
