  dusky copper w/pink gold highlights; melon & fruit cocktail (Del Monte, but in a good nostalgic way) on nose; med/full bodied; quite ripe strawberry confiture, watermelon & pear skin profile, luscious but tempered by an earthy & herbal quality, still reasonably fresh & lively, although on the riper, more dense side. absolutely succulent w/food.
  
  broiled nc bluefish in horseradish crust w/caper & radish gremolata; butter bean ragout w/corn, radicchio & mint
  
  8/16/14 tasty, satisfying last bottle; seamless w/supper (89)
  
  brown turkey figs, green & purple cherokee tomatoes, arugula, burrata, prosciutto

  Chatham. Pretty color. Dry wine of substance that matched well with grilled fresh haddock and cod.

  fruit backward and hard to deifne the fruit - not very aromatic, vague cold peach flesh?, a slight floral-fruti lift, and a slight muskiness (agree with Robin Garr), musky strawberry?; palate is quite fat and round but has good acidity, finish is quite nice and has good length. Not worth $55 IMO though. Front label says 13.5% abv, importers label says 14.5%!

  My second favorite summer rose from the south of France, with altogether enough stuff going on to make it a nice wine to go with lightly grilled chicken, grilled veggies and certain cheeses from the region. Lacked a certain sophistication but well made and still delightful.

  Light fruit, dry with some acidity. Balanced. Would go well with fish
