| Tasted by wmccone54 on 4/28/2019 & rated 89 points: Completely consistent to my detailed note from July 2018. This is always a very terroir and mineral driven wine. Balanced and great with food. (937 views) |
| Tasted by Francophile on 9/28/2018 & rated 90 points: Very pleasant and great representative of this region. A friend who was here for dinner and does "Not drink Rose" asked for a second glass. I think they may be a convert. (1037 views) |
| Tasted by anderegg on 7/23/2018 & rated 88 points: Fully integrated at this time and perhaps a bit past its prime. Tart, fruit, quite good with grilled chicken and dirty rice. There is a bit of astringency in the finish. Stone fruit, some savory herbal notes, mild melon, some citrus and maybe a hint of red berry. (795 views) |
| Tasted by wmccone54 on 7/2/2018 & rated 89 points: Very consistent over a number of vintages. The 2016 is comprised of 40% Grenache, 40% Cinsault, 10% Syrah, and 10% Vermentino. Pale pink color, fresh, very mineral driven with fruit flavors led by white peach, followed by nectarine, watermelon, strawberry, and cantaloupe. Light body, medium alcohol, and medium acidity lead to a medium finish. A solid high quality Provential rose which should appeal to a very broad audience. (802 views) |
| Tasted by RWG on 6/15/2018 & rated 88 points: Opened up with time and as it chilled out. Peaches, tennis ball, pitted fruits. Would buy again, quaffable, good qpr. A win from JR. (738 views) |
| Tasted by davidspieker on 6/14/2018 & rated 89 points: Peachy orange color. Full flavors of strawberry and watermelon. Very pleasant. (648 views) |
| Tasted by btock on 2/1/2018 & rated 88 points: Nice round flavor profile, but not the same acidity or focus and I've enjoyed from this producer. First bottle was better. Juicy strawberry, watermelon type of flavors. Ripe summer fruits. I like Margui for the zing from the Cinsault but this bottle was milder. Drink now. (683 views) |
| Tasted by davidspieker on 11/8/2017 & rated 89 points: Really nice. Love this Chateau. (610 views) |
| Tasted by btock on 11/3/2017 & rated 90 points: Very fine rose. Pale pink hue, watermelon and juicy acidity. A food wine all the way. Served against proscuitto wrapped cantelope and that was nice. Continues to be a go-to pick up from Garagiste. (547 views) |
| Tasted by mwkoehler on 10/14/2017 & rated 90 points: I opened this with no thought of specialness but the first taste got my attention. It was equally delicious the 2nd night. Life conspired that there would be a 3rd night for half a glass and it seems just slightly subdued but in a good past 11 time for bed way. Recommended. (604 views) |
| Tasted by Oldworlddrinker on 9/22/2017 & rated 88 points: Quaffable rose, notes of watermelon, perhaps a little monodimensional, I wish it had a touch of acidity (757 views) |
| Tasted by jeffal66 on 7/4/2017 & rated 90 points: For just over $15, a terrific summer pink full of floral-fruit flavor. Case candidate. (721 views) |
| Tasted by mmcdds on 7/2/2017 & rated 88 points: Always a perennial favorite of mine, bright, crisp and minerally! (605 views) |
| Tasted by Jmdidday on 6/21/2017 & rated 91 points: Oaky, like a chard, not very pink but could drink all day (654 views) |
| Tasted by Motz on 5/28/2017 & rated 91 points: Compelling blend of 40 Cinsault, 40 Grenache, 10 Syrah, and 10 Vermentino. Cinsault delivers an appealing grit, which the Grenache accentuates with sweet fruit and coco powder essence, Syrah adds pepper, and the Vermentino, texture. Fresh and lively yet deep, powerfully structured, generous finish. 90-91. (1024 views) |
