Lacking aromatic intensity and a bit out of balance with heat from alcohol. Strawberry, melon, cranberry and herbs.

I never expected a bottle costing ~$20.00 CAD to be this good. This approachable Southern Rhône Grenache punches well above its price. Presenting plum and blackberry aromas this full body yet spry blend excites a zesty turn on the palate with its crisply dry concentrate of blackberry and currant flavors. Long in finish with hints of lavender and chalk this wine will please. 14% alc/vol

Not the best rose but good for a tavel. Big up front but it drops off a bit quickly.

An absolutely lovely rosé. A definite must for summertime drinking! Not too sweet - dry and a slightly bitter aftertaste.
