Maybe not exactly the time of year for Rose (well not in Northern Ireland anyway!) but I do like the balance between sweetish strawberry fruit and the level of lean acidity with the latter slightly ahead in this vintage contrasting with 2009 - A nice wine

Interestingly this wine got a rave review by Matthew Jukes in the UK this week but I find it a little too confected and lacking the acidity to balance that was so wonderful in the 2009. A Good Rose and a nice value wine

still drinking well but I am glad that we have had some early summer-like weather so I could enjoy this sooner rather than later
