Quite a light, restrained nose. Maybe just a bit too cold? Nice creamy texture with bright red berry fruit. A serious style of Rosé with good grip, a little toast and a lingering strawberries and cream flavour on the finish.

Not liking this rose - can't describe exactly why...there is a intense floral, somewhat off quality to the palate such that i just don't like the experience. Underlying that is some light fruit/berries. Not unpleasant, but just not my style, esp for the higher price. I would much prefer my experiences next door, ie: Spain for some good roses...
I've had one other product from this producer which is pricey, but i enjoyed and would buy agian.

-- tasted a single glass non-blind over 10 - 15 minutes --
NOSE: smoky; somewhat saccharine.
BODY: salmon color of medium depth; medium-light bodied.
TASTE: flat; not much going on; not much fruit; 13% alc.; was told this bottle is likely suffering from bottle shock, as it was recently bottled -- a concurrent sampling of the '09 seems to support this theory.

Deep colour; muffled fruit; medium full bodied, solid & sound but dull.
