Domaine Pélaquié
Tavel Rosé Blend
Tavel, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
60/20/20 blend Grenache, Mourvèdre, Cinsault. A classic wine for a very smoky early autumn-like day in Puget Sound. Light extracted dark red in color, excellent clarity. Floral and red fruit notes in nose. Peach, cranberry, cherry and later tutti frutti flavors in mouth with anise and minerality in finish, slight skin astringency. Dry to off dry. Cherry and anise aftertaste. So much flavor...

Strawberry, cherry, a creamy lactic yogurt quality, and a touch of garrigue or fennel.
Nearly full body on the palate with red fruit and flowers, blood orange, with a bit of that fennel/licorice. Medium acidity and a touch of phenolic bitterness.
Delicious rosé with a lot of food pairing potential given its structure. I will be seeking out more rosés from here.
