Very round, rich wine, with plum and sweet berry flavors and a layer of vanilla. It has a warm, ripe feel to it, with a chew of texture that makes it a wine best with food.——R.V.(8/1/2011)—— 85

Fresh strawberry and caramel aromas start the wine well, but the palate has a bitter edge of almonds, lifed by some juicy acidity and a light apple skin aftertaste.——R.V.(9/1/2010)—— 85

This blend of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault is less obviously fruity than many Provencal roses, but makes up for that in weight and richness. It’s a round, full style, with a layered texture, some dark fruit flavors and a minerally finish.——J.C.(7/1/2008)—— 88
