April 5, 2020 - Lovely wine still with a lot going on.
Expect it to have a number of years to go.
Still retains acidity more complex with age while retaining aummer fruit. Handles spicy dishes as well as darker flavors; enhanced with food.
July 22, 2019 - complex, crisp, a bit more weight than most rose' with grapes, orange peel, bittter amaro on the side of the tongue. Changes with time and better as it warms, a meditazione rose'
September 13, 2018 - Not enjoyable.
November 5, 2017 - A lot of ado about not much. Tasted like a rose that has seen more extensive skin maceration. Drank better on the second day. I'm glad I only purchased one bottle.
September 17, 2017 - Top 2-3 Roses I've ever had and this was unlike any of them. Almost orange in color this had as much length and depth as a top tier red but it's balanced with crisp fresh flavors of a provence rose. Simply awesome and I think it had at least a couple more years of life. Don't drink this too cold!
July 1, 2017 - Subtle strawberry and flowers. Round fruity profile w good acidity. Tasty. Would be good with sheep cheese.
May 19, 2017 - Another winner from a mixed mystery case buy. Had over two nights. No notes. Drinking beautifully right now, combining a lightness and some grip and minerality in the body. Nose of herbs and brush and violet and tar, modestly juicy, medium finish. On its own or with food. Even though it's a 2013 rosato it seems like it could stay on for several more years.

September 15, 2016 - Second bottle so much better. Heh.
September 2, 2016 - This rose from Sardinia is in the top 25% of all rose wines. Translucent dark pink color. Enticing aromas of red raspberry, red cherry, watermelon, and citrus. Limpid in the mouth, with ample raspberry fruit, firm acidity, a juicy texture, and moderately drying but not harsh tannin. The swallow leaves the mouth flavor coated and with a long resonating finish that nicely echoes the earlier tastes. Superb with a huge range of foods. Overall, a fruitier, richer, more complex, and more concentrated rose.
