Not as good as prior bottle tried 6 months ago. Pale pink with nice mousse and light bead maybe due to being drunk from white wine glass at local BYOB. Also, could have been chilled some more. Yeast and citrus on the nose. Very light palate of mineral and yeast. Soft and lacking punch and acidity. Hard to believe it was a rose and not a blanc de blanc. OK, but not as good as I expected.

Pale pink. Nice mousse and bead. Yeasty nose with a hint of citrus and chalk. Delicious, refreshing palate with nice acidity. Mostly mineral, some apple with a hint of citrus. Very nice with food. Purchased on sale from PLCB at $18 which always raises storage concerns. Should have bought a case.

Light pink blush with a very light accent on red...welcoming nose of red berries and a light sense of yeast...very light. Great opening mouth feel at the entry and an engaging mid palate grip with a medium finish...nice fruit with a good spritzy frame.

Pale copper-pink color. Opens with a subtle musty note, then berries and flower petals. Good texture with a medium bead. On the palate, there are notes of berries, toast and flowers. Two-thirds Pinot Noir, one-third Chardonnay.

Excellent pedigree. Dense mousse, berries on the nose, excellent flavor extraction holding red berry fruit high and mighty. Soft mouthfeel finishing long and savory indeed.

Beautiful pink color. Nose predominant with Strawberries and maybe even a little coconut. Got Strawberries and Cream on the palate with a beautiful finish that melted away. Shcramsberg does it again.

Pale salmon pink, fine & steady mousse; lovely strawberries & cream but nothing else to give a bit of complexity; soft & subtle, creamy, but underscored & tied together by crisp -marked- acidity. Extended finish. Would improve with a little more time? score 16

Aromas of light red berries and yeasty dough. Similar flavors on the medium body palate. Nice acidity and earthiness on the finish.

Still very nice even if past its prime. Subtle strawberry and honey.

Opened a bottle when a friend came over and we drank it on the patio. A nice summer experience.

Salmon color leads to a nose of strawberry and bisciut. Zippy acidity carries the strawberry thru the palate to a beautiful finish. Very Nice!
