"Khaki orange color. Aromas of ripe plum, fresh wild strawberries, and rose hip with a supple, crisp, dry-yet-fruity full body and a smooth, delightful, medium-length shale and dried herbs finish with no oak flavor. A rock solid Côtes-du-Rhone Rosé that hits every note."

"A 70-30 blend of Grenache and Syrah, the 2017 Cotes du Rhone Rose is a bright flamingo in color. Hints of crushed stone and lime mark the nose, while the plump, medium-bodied palate shows more peach and cherry notes. It's a solid value in a hot category. - Joe Czerwinski"

"Made from close to equal amounts Syrah and Grenache, the 2017 Côtes du Rhône Rosé offers charming notes of strawberries, orange blossom, and spice. Medium-bodied, juicy and elegant on the palate, it strikes a good balance between richness and freshness and is a good effort."

"Pale orange. Strawberry, candied orange and a suggestion of honeysuckle on the fragrant nose. Juicy red fruit flavors show good depth and focus and no rough edges. A spicy nuance appears on the finish, which hangs on with good fruity persistence."
