Lovely color. Significantly deeper in red than the whispering angel next to it. Nose is earthy, dry rose petal, strawberry, pear, caramel. Palate is similar. Finish has lime acidity. Nice, easy drinking wine that pairs well with food. Not that complex but on par for price.

Medium watermelon color. Nose shows juicy white cherries, raspberries and red apple peel with some chalky, honeyed notes. Creamy texture, round, but shows bright acidity. Raspberries and red apple mix with waxy, honeyed notes. Dandelion and candle wax elements on the finish. Fun, straightforward but reliably solid pink.

Salmon in color. Simple and crisp nose of saline, honeysuckle, spices, and light peach. Light bodied, dry, and highly acidic. Palate of lemon, lime, honeysuckle, and a hint of peach. There is a bit of a firm tannin structure that flows into a spicy and sour short finish.
There is this undercurrent of spices to this wine that almost makes you think it was oak aged. Looking up the tech sheet, this is a steel aged. I wonder if this is the 10% Syrah making itself known.
Will you mistake this for a Provence Rose? I won’t. But still hits all the right buttons for me.

Definitely darker in hue than the 2018. Raspberry, dried herbs, macerated strawberries and dried cranberry waft up on the nose. Broadly textured and creamy on the palate with some blood orange and peach flavours coming through along with a really chewy, juicy finish. This is much more 'Rhone' in style that previous vintages and will work well on the dinner table. Another winner from Guigal...

Medium-deep salmon—like sockeye. Juicy and tropical on the nose, with intense watermelon and blood orange fruit aromas. Kind of smells like sour watermelon candy. Wow, very high acidity on the palate, way more than I would have expected from a Rhone rosé. It's also the sort of sharp, acrid acidity that I usually associate with artificial, added tartaric acid, an impression that is amplified by the fact that the fruit seems very tropical and ripe, so the very high acid doesn't match up. I am surprised because I wouldn't expect that from Guigal, but I'm afraid it ruins the wine for me.

역시 깔끔한 쉬라
노즈는 거의 없음
짭쪼름하다. 피니쉬에 타닌이 적절히 올라온다.
