  PnP, drank at 50 degrees
  Aromas of saline, orange peel, funk, marshmallow, green grapes,
  On the palate, dry with hints of dried apricot, minerals, salinity, watermelon,
  Medium-minus body (gained weight with more air), mouth-salivating acidity, medium finish, grippy tannins.
  Overall, a pleasant wine with a little less going on than a Tavel, but much more heft than a Provencal rose. I like it and it's a good QPR!

  Very good, consistent with prior bottles. I wish it had a longer finish, but both the flavors and balance are excellent.

  Made from 100% Cabernet Franc in the saignee method which explains the medium orange color and medium body. The wine doesn’t see MLF thus providing medium acidity. Alcohol is medium. Medium aromas and flavors of red currant, juicy strawberry, ripe cherry, spicy raspberry and some underlying minerality. Medium plus finish. Not terribly complex, but shows good balance, decent intensity, and great length.

  A serious rose that is fun too. Darkish pink with hint or orange. Smallish nose with some herb/berry. Tight and clean with orange, herbs, hint of lighter fruit such as strawberries. Almost a meatier something too. Very enjoyable after a hard week at work so I may be biased... Not your standard flower/watermelon/strawberry rose.

  Darker pink colored, more so than a Provencal rose. Slightly disappointed. Seems somewhat hollow at mid-palate, but does exhibit good fruit flavors and is definitely dry. Decent finish.
