  I fully agree with PURSLANE and their tasting assessment. This Rose is a deeper, rich pink than B.C. roses with the tastes to match. Think a light red but in a Rose wine ... what’s not to love? This wine has “rich red cherry, strawberry, and raspberry that proves to be delicious to smell, sip, and swallow. Very lively wine with saber sharp acidity and a touch of tannin.”
  
  The heavier, more red wine notes matched well with the full, rich flavours of Fable’s menu and our anniversary dinner. Now we need to see if we can find this wine in our local Vancouver wine stores. 😊

  Luscious. Strawberry, stone fruits and cherry. Exactly what one wants from Tavel.

  My experience with rose wines is that you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince. But when the server brought two glasses over for us as the reception wine, I knew I was about to experience a treat. 18 inches away, before handing over the glasses, I could smell the vivid flavors. Darker pink, with a fruit rich red cherry, strawberry, and raspberry that proves to be delicious to smell, sip, and swallow. Very lively wine with saber sharp acidity and a touch of tannin. Overall, an excellent palette awakener, that is the best rose from the 2016 vintage that I have tasted.
