Not sure if this was my bottle or my dad’s. The mousse on this was nearly gone. As a still wine this was delicious and poised - strawberries and some red florals with a bit of yeast and bread. Supple but light.

Wow, 2010 Ultramarine continues to be my favorite so far. This rose has the perfect balance of fruit, herbs and toast. Caution, there was so much pressure under the cork that mine still escaped even with my thumb on top...nearly got a black eye.

Some wines with chili crab etc. (Chicago, IL): I've had a few concerns with how these were aging, but this bottle managed to allay a few of those fears. The nose shows a slight bit of breadiness, but some lovely fruits as well. A nice hint of sweetness on the palate, and there is a nicely broad texture here. It doesn't have the zippy electricity of youth, but this has settled very nicely.

This was quite cool. Bright, tart red berries. Not much on the mid-palate or finish here, but a lot of pleasure on the attack. Think I prefer his Rose to his Chard.

Definitely had more toast and weight than the last time I tasted this wine (Feb2015). Very delicious red berries mixed with the toast - delicious!
