Light in colour. A dry rose with subtle fruit flavours in abundance. Has notes of herbs, black olives and fresh fruit. A brilliant French wine that encapsulates what the Mediterranean coast would taste like if it was a glass of rosé. Has spices and freshness all in one. Is a blend of syrah and mourvédre. Elegant and wonderful.

This wine was a big hit at a cheese and wine night I had in my apartment. Is a nice salmon colour. Is very fresh and fruity and highly drinkable. Good stuff.
