  Nice light value dry rose, light salmon color. Displays aromas and fruity flavors of strawberry and watermelon accentuated with some smokiness and minerality. Perfect for outdoor summer consumption with light snacks. Nice acidity and a decent finish. Would purchase again.

  Glad to see it has held up as we are now back in the season.
  
  Lovely refreshing pink color.
  
  On the nose, ripe strawberry...punch. Fresh and clean. Slight alcohol burn on the nose and also some eye burn.
  
  On palette, clean, fresh fruity, there is a bitterness which starts out as pepper, and makes me think it is related to the stems or pits. Not tannin feel though, but the bitterness. Nice acidity. Good finish.
  
  It remains as a nice rose for hot weather. More interesting than some of the watery ones out there but nothing too fancy.

  First day that feels like spring!
  
  Seems unchanged from last fall.
  
  On nose, strawberries. You do have to pull it out by swirling.
  
  On palette, minerality, nice acidity, freshness, pairs well with foods, it's easy drinking and does not seem to have changed much since last fall. Glad I have a few bottles left.
  
  It's a wine that is what it intends to be.

  This is a very tasty rhone rosé. Slightly sweet strawberry fruit, mineral, a nice level of acidity. Drank well with burgers on National Cheeseburger Day.
