First vintage was 2010. And 2012 on the method has been the same. A touch of Rolle in there. An accumulation in one tank that gets aggregated as harvest progresses. Cinsault is sangiee. And picked for the rose. Then mourvedre. They make more of this than anything else. No battonage. The Grenache is from way up in the Sierra foothills.
Crab apple on the nose. And cranberry. And it usually goes through at least partial malo but they don't really want to block it. More high toned and bright this vintage. Juicy, fun stuff.

Beautiful Provence-style Rose'. Bright cherry, cranberry, strawberry, with a tangy acidity on the finish. Great QPR.

Lean across the palate but in a good way. Actually there is some fattness there. Or some intrigue.
