2022 Domaine du Clos d'Alari Vin de France Métisse
4/30/2024 - Francophile wrote: 86 Points
I have bought more than one case each year, going back several years, of Garagiste's best Rose's of the year and up to 2022 vintage they have always been a sure winner of each of the 12 different bottles. I have not tried them all yet for 2022, but there have been several I would not buy twice. In fact the Version 2 case has so far turned out better. On this the acidity hit me immediately and made for a less appealing first mouthfull. Dark pink in the glass, but little to recommend it. I appreciate that selecting the best 12 from hundreds of wines is difficult, and trying to broaden horizons and appeal to all tastes is no easy task. I have loved the experience of all these Rose's but I hope that the 2023 selection focuses on more traditional Rose wines. I gave this 86 that is really on a scale of 82 to 98.

2022 Domaine du Deves Rosé

A nice balanced wine with a pale colour and fruit obvious. Pity I only had one of these, and would buy again.
