Whoa damn. Last bottle must have been suffering from severe bottle shock, this one is just hands down watermelon juice. Opens up with reduction, a quick decant will help but the last glass of sediment was the best so go figure. Savory nose with a palate of a bit of grip. Fascinated by the turnaround.

A bit more alcohol is perceived than 2015. It may settle down with some bottle time. This seemed better at a cooler temperature. 4-6C. Strawberries and Raspberries are the main fruits both on nose and palate with medium acidity and good length. Tasty rose

Reduction, metallic with little fruit. Looks bottled unfiltered, whiffs of nattiness but far from it. Dissapointing since there pinots are solid albeit overpriced.

I liked this better than some of the other new world Pinot Noir roses. It had a nice strawberry, cherry flavor with just the right hint of wet earth. Simple, but very nice. Better close to room temperature and best on day 1 (unfortunately, not as good on day 3 when I drank two glasses of it).
