{screwcap, 13.8%} Onion skin colour. Floral aromas, somewhat developing. Faint strawberry. The palate is a bit diffuse, with a flavour I imagine you'd get chewing on rose petals. Certainly not sweet, but running the risk of being entirely too dilute. No real tannin, medium acidity. Bone dry, not flabby, just needs a bit more flavour. May have been better in youth. I was less impressed than last year, must confess.

3 Tasmanian Wineries; 1/14/2022-1/23/2022 (Tasmania): {screwcap, 13.8%, A$32} Not the defunct ‘Easy’ label, but a proper rose. A near-unique mix of merlot, chardonnay and shiraz in the ratio 70/25/5. A mix of floral and plum characters. Aims for the provencale style. Medium acid, good balance, a bit of furry grape-skin astringency. Dry, light-bodied, short/medium length finish. Actually pretty good.
