Community Tasting Notes (average 88.3 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 21 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Nanda on 3/26/2016 & rated 86 points: A solid rosé -- more herbs than fruit on the nose but there is some melon and dried berry fruit. Refreshing with plenty of tangy acid. (1574 views)
 Tasted by jviz on 1/31/2016 & rated 89 points: The nose takes you to straight to southern France. heavy handed acidity, but the wine has plenty of weight thanks to mostly cinsault. Tart grapefruit, stone notes predominate. Perfectly refreshing in hot weather and underrated on this site. (1444 views)
 Tasted by phil the agony on 8/10/2015 & rated 88 points: Beau rosé pas très complexe mais qui se boit d'une trette!
Fraise,fraise confite et légèrement herbacé.
Un finale un peu sucré.
Très bien dans l'ensemble mais un rosé ne m'excitera jamais et je ferai jamais un article de 2 pages là-dessus à chaque année.

 Tasted by isaacjamesbaker on 7/19/2015 & rated 86 points: Rhone Tasting: Strawberries and tart white cherries on the nose. Bright and full of tangy strawberries and white cherries, clean acid, a salty, herbal kick. Fun, tangy, bright and crisp. (2149 views)
 Tasted by Loren Sonkin on 7/5/2015 & rated 84 points: Fourth of July at Wes & Cassandra's (Ravenna): As I was getting up to leave, I saw this on the table. Never had it, so I poured a taste. Pink in color. The nose is nice enough with strawberries and rhubarb. On the palate, this starts with an initial hint of sweetness before turning mouth puckering tart. It smoothes a bit on the finish. To be fair, it might have showed better earlier in the night before the heavy reds. Certainly drinkable and a bit refreshing. A different time a, a different place, perhaps.... (2216 views)
 Tasted by spacewrangler on 6/25/2015: Just terrible rose. (918 views)
 Tasted by slulkin on 5/29/2015 & rated 82 points: Don't think the bottle was flawed, but no one particularly cared for it, myself included. It just didn't seem to offer anything. Nothing interesting on the nose and on the palate seemed almost like drinking water. (1307 views)
 Tasted by qcwino on 4/25/2015: Very dry with wonderful acidity. (770 views)
 Tasted by Eric on 2/6/2015: A mid-winter visit to Châteauneuf-du-Pape; 2/5/2015-2/7/2015 (Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, France): Cinsault and Grenache. A meaty nose but quite clean and bracing on the palate. Tight, citric, cutting and mineral. This will take a bit to unwind, but I am sure it will be quite clean and refreshing. (4142 views)
 Tasted by dpolivy on 2/6/2015 & rated 89 points: Tasting in Châteauneuf-du-Pape; 2/5/2015-2/7/2015 (Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, France): Light pink color. Fresh nose with hints of watermelon. Sour cherry and minerals on the palate. Crazy mouthwatering acidity. Very crisp and refreshing. (1277 views)
