Light orange-pink. Fresh red berries, white peach, orange zest and pungent flowers on the mineral-accented nose. Focused and energetic on the palate, offering redcurrant, nectarine and blood orange flavors that deepen and turn sweeter with air. Shows impressive energy and minerally bite on the persistent finish, which leaves lavender and pit fruit notes behind. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, July 2021)

If you’re looking for a masculine, structured rose, you’ve arrived. Structure and puckery red fruit beam their way through a nicely chalky and soft-peachy fruit core. Seek this out.

Pretty much water white color, barely a hint of pink. Subtle white peach on the nose. Palate is a bit neutral
