Pretty floral notes on the nose, some sweet oak. Pretty cherry fruit. Elegant. On the palate, remarkably mineral - inky, black, dark and polished. Some cooked black cherries, and then the tannins... They hit you with everything they've got, and when you can't take it any more, they chase you around the block. Finish is drying, extracted... Too traditional.
Tasted November 2024We’re mother and son duo Elizabeth Gabay MW and Ben Bernheim. Between us, we’ve been involved in the wines of southern France for over 30 years. Elizabeth started working with the wines of Provence back in 1986, and for the past 20 years has lived on the eastern edge of south-east France. We’ve worked on three books on rosé: Rosé Understanding the Pink Wine Revolution (2018), Elizabeth Gabay’s Buyers Guide to the Rosés of Southern France (2021 e-guide) and, most recently Rosés of Southern France (2022).
