Retail $25. Cinsault, Grenache, Syrah, Rolle. I have had a few bottles of this now, and while all of the previous bottles have been stellar, this one is less so. Not much fruit, a bit overly tart, and even a tad astringent, particularly on the finish. Me thinks it must be an aberration. Maybe?
Retail $25. Cinsault, Grenache, Syrah, Rolle. I was at my local grocery store (I love my H-E-B) where the 2020 vintage of this wine was on sale. I bought a bunch and decided that it might be time to go through the last few bottles of the 2019. I really liked it nine months ago, and nothing has really changed; great fruit, fantastic acidity, and a really lovely mouthfeel. The price has inched up over the last six months but this is still a good bargain at the $17 I pay at my local store (I love my H-E-B).
A well made rose. Peach dominant nose, well balanced and good acidity and food friendly. Surprisingly goes very well with Japanese curry (Vermont curry).

I'm absolutely no big fan of rosé, but this is one that I really liked. Didn't take notes, however, so therefore also no rating. Just enjoyed it in my garden, enjoying the sun :-)
Will buy more of this

Compared to the last bottle, this seems much more developed/aged. Light summer fruit but a bit of sweetness ala caramel. Acidity not as harmonious as in the past. This is great rose.
