Good food wine, but lost much of its vibrancy already. Far more flat than a fresh Turkey Flat. Drink up!

Dry. Med- acidity. Med- body. Low- tannins. Med- finish. 13% abv. 95% Grenache. Pale to medium pink. Fast medium tears. Lovely perfume nose initially giving off aromas of green apple. It was continually evolving with different aromas with each sniff: Asian pear, orange blossom, and raspberry. Nice body on the smooth, velvety palate and there is a hint of tannins present. There are flavours of grapefruit and a hint of spice and herb. There is enough acidity for me but …

Strawberries, sweet cherries (but not too sweet), a bit minerally, a bit of herb, super long finish for a Rose. We love it. I wondered if this was worth the extra cost over the other Roses we have, so we got three bottles to try. Guess what? Just pulled the trigger on a case. You only live once, and compelling summer wines don't come along every day. This is a winner in our book. I sveikata!

This exceeded my expectations with tons of fresh fruit. It was vibrant and ripe. Evident grenache on the nose but the palate has been enhanced by the addition of cabernet and shiraz adding great texture, weight and midpalate complexity. Excellent acidity provided by the bit of dolcetto in the blend, energetic finish that is refreshing and deep. This is the perfect fusion of a Provencal nose and Australian body. Great QPR.

Aromas of strawberry and watermelon Jolly Ranchers with a slight hint of a kerosene lamp. Upfront bright red fruit, nice acid on the mid-palette. Finishes with a great punch of spice. Great rosé!

Excellent Rose, nice and dry with hints of strawberries. Nice level of tannins, this is what a Rose wine should be. Will buy again.

I enjoyed this more than some of the recent Provence roses that I had... A touch of sweetness, but good acidity for a light and refreshing package. Very good value for the price ($12).

Spectacular Syrah Tasting at Dino's (Dino's - Washington, DC) : first wine of the night. mostly grenache, but there's some syrah in here too. dark salmon color. on the nose, i got rose petals and strawberry pie. this is a pretty big rose, with some nice tannins. good acid, lots of strawberry and watermelon flavors backed up by black pepper. good way to start off.

The Blind Drunks monthly tasting (Chateau Lay) : Notes of berries, spice and maybe soem petrol. Bright fruit and acidity on the palate, with nice depth and balance for a rosé.

Bristol Wine Company May In Store Wine Tasting (Bristol Wine Company, Victoria Street, Bristol) : Excellent. Fresh, creamy and slightly spice in addition to the typical strawberry/raspberry nose with a dose of cherry too. Delightful on the palate, excellent acid, fruity, creamy, complex and well-balanced. Exceptional Rose that should silence haters. Some info: A blend of Grenache, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Dolcetto. All are fermented separately and all except the Shiraz are fully fermented (i.e. all the sugar is used …

Decanter New World Fine Wine Encounter (The Royal Lancaster Hotel, London W2) : Made from a blend of Grenache, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Dolcetto, this wine is light, fruity, crisp and delicious.

An interesting blend of grapes. I like the flavour too, even though I've grown to dislike lots of rosé wines. But this one I like. I would rate it as high good (83.5).

Smell of strawberries and cream. Aromas of strawberries, honeydew and cream. A bit sweet but nicely balanced.

Impressions only as I forgot to enter this a few days ago. Not as fresh as the 2006. Still ample acidity but the fruit is not as prominent. Fair dose of minerality on the finish. Has gone up in price and so not the qpr of last year.

We were disappointed with this wine. It had some nice fruit flavors, but was much ligher than the 2006 version. Not sure if it is time in the bottle (we had this in Feb, while we had the 2006 in June: 4 months later) or, more likely, the 2007 vintage/version. We bought 2.5 cases of the 2006 @ $12 and it was our house rose for the summer. The 2007 is $16/bottle, and won't find a home here at that …

A little sweet in the beginning, but paired nicely with Thanksgiving fare. Strawberry is the clear flavor.
