The most affordable Frank Cornelissen wine is this Rosé, I believe. This looks and smells somewhat like a Jura red, tending a little bit more towards the classic Rosé aroma but earthier. Crisp, tart, berry fruits with the slightest touch of tannin. Seems to be less funky and lighter than prior vintages. Simple but pleasant. Not as much going on as I hoped.

Fresh and bright with false effervescence that blows off with some air. Ash, olive brine, and tart cranberry notes. Bit of funk not over the top or overly complex. Makes me crave grilled salmon with a teriyaki glaze.

Iconoclastic and delicious. Rocks, funk and all kinds of juicy red and black fruit

Very funky on the nose. It seems to open in the glass but I left it overnight and still has funk from the bottle. I wonder if it got too warm in the store. Anyway it still has a great game, herbal, floral, and bright cherry fruit. Best with food. I didn’t like as much as last year though.

Drinking with Josh and Anna, eating also with Kai, Hanna, and Vandan. Bright red fruit and acidic. Cherry, dry, and juicy. A little of funky comes through but it is balanced! Would have again for sure! #2019
