Wine Reviews

A round and creamy rosé, with weight to its notes of white cherry, strawberry and wild herbs, all bolstered by a foundation of mineral and crushed stone. This is balanced, with all of its elements integrated through the well-meshed finish, which is marked by hints of spices and fleur de sel.

Smells like raspberry ripple ice cream, then it’s dry on the palate with good acidity, ending with a herbal touch. This has freshness, detail, balance and interest, best drunk by itself but will stand up to light dishes. Lovely energy and floral notes.

Publisher’s Picks. This rosé offers a perfume of rose petals steeped in Pekoe tea. Melting vanilla bean crosses the palate, with strawberries and an ever-so-light sensation of whipped cream. Beautifully balanced acidity augmenting a dashing, dramatic exit.

This is a bit lighter in both color and palate weight than most Tavel rosés, but it is quite generous in flavor, with fruit recalling ripe wild strawberries and pie cherries. The wine’s acidity is so finely interlaced with the fruit flavors that it doesn’t stand out as a distinct element, yet it continues to provide lift and drive to the flavors through a persistent and proportional finish.
