Lovely wine from Provence with smoothness and very pale pink colour. Super and drinking well right now, not surprised it made the Best Rose's of 2022 case from Garagiste.

Nice really crisp sharp white that I enjoyed. Seeing its earlier rating I was not expecting such a bright sharp wine. A nice surprise and would buy more.

I have bought more than one case each year, going back several years, of Garagiste's best Rose's of the year and up to 2022 vintage they have always been a sure winner of each of the 12 different bottles. I have not tried them all yet for 2022, but there have been several I would not buy twice. In fact the Version 2 case has so far turned out better. On this the acidity hit me immediately and made for a less appealing first mouthfull. Dark pink in the glass, but little to recommend it. I appreciate that selecting the best 12 from hundreds of wines is difficult, and trying to broaden horizons and appeal to all tastes is no easy task. I have loved the experience of all these Rose's but I hope that the 2023 selection focuses on more traditional Rose wines. I gave this 86 that is really on a scale of 82 to 98.
