Definitely serious rosé. Almost stern, like it’s looking down its nose at us for expecting anything as frivolous as a crisp and lively Provençal rosé. It has weight and textures and is almost a bit much as an aperitif, but all makes sense when the food arrives. It paired well with baked salmon and could probably take on more serious dishes — I can see it working well with charcuterie on a spring afternoon. Good concentration and length. Interesting wine.

Sep 11th, 2020(This is for a Eastern Peake Pinot Taché.). This is definitely some adult rosé. The lees contact gives depth on the nose and lovely texture to the palate. Fresh strawberry notes up front give way to suppleness in the middle and then a drier savoury finish, supplemented by the lees-y characters. It’s a lovely aperitif. A great food wine.
