In contrast to the regular 2015 Pibarnon rose, which has been showing some obtrusive heat on the finish for a while, the '15 Nuances is holding up pretty well. The nose has melon fruit and sea breeze, and the palate is medium-full without losing freshness or showing overly juiciness. It's firm and crisp and mineral still. I would likely not advise holding for much longer, and in general I think this drank better 18-24 months ago.

Deep rusty orange, relatively dark. Rich ripe mandarin, intense sweetness. Super ripe with plenty of red fruit flavours coming through, and an almost smokey character. Has a big structure too, good acid and almost tannic on the finish. Unusually rich for a Rose, but not 'sweet', just a slightly confronting intensity.

Creamy and floral bouquet with some caramel as well. On the palate pleasant fruit and vanilla.

Powerful, structured rosé. Added complexity over their regular rosé. Maybe too much for the pool. Serious stuff.

Exact same impression as last time, not convinced on this one
