For such a lightly-colored Rosé—if you can call it that, it’s actually golden yellow—this packs quite a fruit punch. Citrus, peach and melon linger a long time on the palate, and the nose is quite fresh, too. Good acid backbone keeps the fruit reigned in. My first Corsican I believe and, I hope, not my last. 5-11-16-8: 90/100.

Maybe it was because it was one of the first warm days of spring and it really hit the spot, but this was just killing it today with all of the ethereal saline tangy melon splendor that this wine often delivers. Beautiful.

Truly excellent rosé. Pale with faint silver/pink/grey/yellow. This was opened the night departing for a trip to the island, but an unexpected disruption caused it to be consumed in a distracted state. It was still wonderful, showing touches of peach and nectarine. Very pure with a lingering finish. Here's the interesting part - about 1/4 of the remaining bottle sat in the fridge for 2 1/2 weeks, just capped, I don't think it got any gas... and it still drank well upon return, I was stunned - I don't know where the hidden structure is that allowed this to sit so long and still be solidly very good.

Marvelously delicate florals. Elegant. Pillowy soft, yet still firm.

Tremendous Rose! Incredible floral nose. Perfectly balanced throughout, great white peach taste and a super, long finish.
