Bright very pale salmon pink colour. Very slightly spicy, faintly honeyed, ripe plum-apple nose. Fairly dry, light bodied, tangy, fresh plum and ripe red apple flavours with a very crisp finish. This Cotes de Provence blend of Cinsault, Grenache and Syrah has 13% alcohol and 6 g/L residual sugar with lot number 6148 on the capsule. A repeat of the recommended 2015 (**/**+) released on April 30, 2016 at $15.95. TONY ASPLER / 88-points / BUY - Cherry pit nose; medium-bodied, dry, red apple and sour cherry flavours. |

TASTING NOTE: This is what you hope for in a Rosé - it's fresh and lively with racy red fruit flavour ameliorated with a bit of ripe, sweet fruit on the palate finishing with good tang on a dry, mouth-watering finish, and all this at a reasonable price. Aromas of red cherry/berry fruit lead to a medium-bodied, balanced and textured stream of strawberry and pie cherry flavour with bits of spice. It finishes dry, crisp and lip-smacking good. Pour with lighter-styled appetizers or roast chicken. Score - 4 Stars (out of 5) (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, April 24, 2016) |
