One of the better roses! Quite enjoyable with deep fruit flavors and great brightness.

Top rosé of 2015 thus far! I can get more--provided my Garagiste request comes through. Oh heck. If you are into Riesling and if you are also into slightly subtle Pinot Noir you'll flip. If you like a red that is full but cold-blooded you'll get into it. This is my second time reviewing. And if my order is fulfilled won't be my last. What can you get? Here ya go: nose: gasoline raspberries roses(flammable but tasty/smelly) Tongue: medium plus acid a hint of tannin, medium plus alcohol n body and you get a cornucopia of fruit from cherries to grapefruit to an Asian pear to even more. The finish goes on long enough for me to say I'll be writing a whole blog entry at some point. When I get more bottles to think on. Ahem.

A nice dry, fruity rosé. Salmon color. Strawberries on the nose.

Oh heck. Dang you garagiste. I've realized it is generally better to order 2 at a time but...this lovely Baden rosé(?!$) is crazy...kerosene plus roses and cherries and maybe mandarins and/or flippin' blackberries o my when I have a good blank slate for it I shall give another write-up. I've at least got one more! bottle

Wow what a Rose! Fresh complex floral minerals stones all come in and out. Great texture and liveliness on palate and long finish. What a wine from JR. says to leave open four days. Only two bottles total and opened on a lark last minute to Mexican place near Long Wood before cold night visit to Christmas light show. Not the best pairing due to spiciness but a great Rose from German Pinot Noir.

Wow. This one has been sitting in my fridge for a while and with the weather so warm I decided to open up a rose. I didn’t realize how much I would enjoy this and didn’t realize how truly special and rare this was until I opened my notes (thank you JR!). This is a stunning example of what the Germans can do with Pinot noir. Beautiful harmony throughout. Notes of rose pedal that will knock your socks off. Just 75 cases produced.

Very nice rose, some strawberries but fruit not overpowering. Crisp but warm on the palate, more full bodied than many roses. Dry with a tiny hint of sweetness.

Wow, an amazing #Garagiste selection! Do not drink this too cold as it needs to be cellar temperature to shine.
