52% Mourvèdre 48% Grenache. Pale yellow white (no pink? Arguably, no), excellent clarity. I get strawberry, melon and stone fruit aromas but the label says rose petal aromatics, which is in the ballpark. Good acidity, not quite bone dry, mostly peach and citrus flavors with a strawberry aftertaste. Slight to moderate skin astringency, a minor flaw for me but otherwise quite nice for a dry Rosé
