October 27, 2013 - I was flat wrong back in May when I said to drink up. This is drinking beautifully now and seems to have gained weight and complexity, all the while keeping a great balance of fruit and acidity. I love Domaine Tempier and several other rose's from around the globe, but this is in another realm. Best bottle of the four I've consumed. Looking forward to the next vintage. 5+10+19+9 = 93

May 8, 2013 - Big, round, and delicious. Double blind, would probably call it a heavyweight Rhone or Burgundy blanc with just a touch of earth and tannin. Pair with anything. Losing a bit of impact compared to last year so drink up this summer

July 1, 2012 - A stunning ruby/tangerine color with fantastic shimmer. Aroma of honeyed peaches, wet concrete, strawberry, melon, and cinnamon. Very full bodied, weighted like a nice creamy chard, it sits 9 months sur lies to get it's seductive character. Luscious and persistent flavor through a long finish (for a rose). I don't sense any heat or alcohol, even at warmer-than-cellar temp. Don't expect Bandol here, this is a whole different animal. Could fit anywhere you would drink a Chardonnay, PN, or Granache. Highly recommend 5+11+18+8 = 92
