Flat, uninspired, out of balance. Absolutely no taste of the grape anywhere to be found. In the infamous words of Professor Arthur Ballet (University of Minnesota): It wasn't good. I didn't like it.

Jeff liked, Kevin didn't think it tasted like Chardonnay - too sweet.

Cherry-licious. Wonderful stuff. Previous user from 2018 wondered if age wouldn't work in this wine's favor. Our bottle this evening was great, rich, full-bodied, all the stuff we love.

Extremely heavy sediment; served with 165 day aged Cote de boef, which paired well. Strongly suggest you strain the wine into a decanter.

Had an earthy undertone in the nose and on the tongue - not necessarily a good thing for what is otherwise a nice, pleasant Rose.

dry and not overly sweet, great color, but pronounced citrus overtones keep me from rating higher.
