    July 15, 2020 - Pale, peachy-salmon in the glass. On the fuller-bodied side for a Provence rosé, but still in nice balance. Firm, bright acidity frames Rainier cherry and melon notes, and there's a wash of gentle bitterness in the finish. Enjoyable and well-priced to boot - may go back for more of this one.

    February 29, 2020 - Gift from a neighbor who bought it from a local gourmet grocer for 5/b. Very pale pink/gray; fragrant floral, white tree fruits that follow on the palate, good mouthfeel; some persistence--more like a Rhone blanc than a rose'. Almost as good after 24h. Stored vertically (screwcap) in a cool, dark basement. My evaluation: For me, scores on a "100-point scale" are misleading. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. This is notable when considering quality, age, and price.
