PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs and Day 2 -translucent hauntingly pale light orange/pink -low-key nose with some peach/apricot and melon notes -only med acidity, med weight, savory minerality dominates palate somewhat reminiscent of Tempier, a bit more verve on Day 2 -surprising weight and a silky texture make this somewhat atypical for a provencal rose, would benefit from a bit more acidity (maybe it's faded since release last year?)

A nice, light and airy rosé, with subtle raspberries and a refreshing finish.
