Decent enough common-or-garden provencale rose. It has a touch more heft and sweetness on the palate that I usually care for with a slightly confected finish. Decent enough though - but I prefer them leaner and fresher than this.

Lovely, easy drinking rose. Not too sweet, light salmon colour. Great for an early summer barbecue ;)
