Dull flavours of strawberry and rockmelon. The fruit is not as strong as it could be, but it has a good mouthfeel, combining firm tannin with bright, crisp acidity.

Juicy, red fruits- strawberry, wild berry, and watermelon followed by earthy jelly pectin, bitter watermelon rind, cucumber, and leafy-nori notes as the fruit fades from the front palate. Finish is a bit too green and bitter for my taste but not terribly upset at the $12.99 price. Overall Evaluation: B (85).

Really juicy and delicious. Raspberry and cherry fruits abound. It is a substantial rose, full of flavor. There's good volume in the mouth and it dries off on the finish inviting another sip. An absolutely cracking all-rounder with a wide array of foods. Although I say this with the confession that I have only ever had it with a Vietnamese pork and noodle salad.

Dark rose color similar to cranberry juice. creamy mouthfeel, dry somewhat provincial style but tastes of very high alcohol content. I read this may be the MO of tavel, but if so, its a bit off putting.
