Flavors of spicy strawberries. Very rich and meaty for a rose. Tasted next to a Spanish rose, which tasted flaccid next to this wine and was even worse with food. This wine is great on its own or pairs nicely with food, tasted with a tapas sampler with tortilla (spanish omelet), truffle cheese, and tomato bruschetta. Notes from winemaker: Rose petals, liquorices, cloves and candied red fruits on the nose with a dry, full bodied, voluptuous mouthfeel of fresh strawberries, rhubarb, and ripe red cherries in the mid-palate. The finish is a very long, rich mouthful of holiday spices and dark red raspberries. This wine is much bigger than one would expect based on outward appearance.

Very nice! Dry at first, very drinkable right now after 30-45 minutes in the glass/decanter.
