Super weird blend of Gamay, Cab Sauv, and Malbec from Loire. The wine itself isn't as interesting as the grapes in it though. It's crisp and dry with tart fruit and minimized mineral tone.

Jul 22nd, 2015Cherries, sea breeze, flowers, and perhaps a subtle herbal note. On the palate: cherry, watermelon, lemon with medium acidity and a slight red fruit confected note on the end.
Well made and drinkable but not particularly memorable. For the price, I'll skip this next time.

Mar 20th, 2021Nothing special. Feel like the winemaker created a menagerie if grapes they had in the basement. Better rose out there...by the volume. When we are all stuck inside, you can find better rose.
