    Very pale shell. Straightforward and classic on the nose with blue florals, pink grapefruit thiols and a touch of leesiness. On the palate, it is vibrant, mineral and crisp, offering a good intensity of ripe, rich dried apricots and zesty lemon that is missing in many rosés this vintage. Not a complex wine, but very pretty, though slightly let down by a chalky finish and a hint of bitterness.
