From Magnum. Nose of roses, citron, saffron and figs. Palate is dry, a bit acidic, and with spicy citrus.

1996 P2 Vintage Rose. With Richard Geoffroy at Claridges for the launch of this wine. Medium copper hue. Nose is wonderfully complex and fruity, roses, dried fruits with some earthy, mushroom notes, wild berries and savoury spices. On the palate, red currant flavours to the fore, medium plus acidity, fairly aggressive bubbles, medium plus concentration and decent finish. Not at the same level as the '95 P2 Rose. But could get there? Drink now until 2030+.

Too young, needs more time, tannins aren't integrated. Opened up in the glass, but I'd wait 5-10 years.
