Anyone know what's in here? One source says all Cinsault, but it's quite dark. Either way, the pesky cat is especially delicious this year!

Cherries and nice soft tannins. But got a touch cloying on the finish. I enjoyed it but a lot of people would not.

Fruit-driven rosé with enough acid to go very well with burgers. Pretty watermelon color, with watermelon and strawberry on the palate.

Opened the 2013 in July of 2018. Roasted tomato, smoked earth, dried herbs, cherry preserves, flint. Medium bodied, moderate acidity, smoky and bitter finish. Should have opened sooner, I think this wine would be more enjoyable with primary fruit.
