  March 24, 2020 - Further to my Note of July 22 '19: Opened another bottle to complement simple sauteed fish filets. Holding well: pale pink, some delicate red berry fruit and tartness, good mouthfeel. No detectable decline over the past eight months and still at least notable.

  September 2, 2019 - I thought it was going to be a BS wine but turned out to be pretty good. Much dryer than I expected. I like it and would buy it again.

  July 22, 2019 - Bought 12b online for 8.10/b about a year ago; fifth bottle from the order. Medium pink; subdued fruit nose and body, some tasty bitterness. Perhaps some fruit fade since first bottle about a year ago but still tasty. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: I've stopped giving scores on a "100-point scale" as I've become less convinced that they can be meaningful to others. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. I considered this notable when considering quality, age, and price.

  May 10, 2019 - If you need a cute vase, buy this bottle....
  
  Paid $5 at Trader Joe's. Pale copper color. Citrus, strawberry, and raspberry on the nose. The palate is extremely dry with notes of watermelon, more raspberry, and a hint of minerality. Alcohol is medium and the acidity is medium. Definitely needs food. Disappointing on its own. Just not much there. Will not buy again, not for $5...not for $1.

  April 19, 2019 - Very dry rose. Definitely not fruity. Nothing special about it. Wouldn't drink it by itself.
