Have had lucky with Rosé lately, and this continues the streak.
Raspberry, pink grapefruit, strawberry, apricot, melon…. Fruit galore! Chalky minerals and light herbs as well. Very structured on the palate with good texture, racy acidity, and hint of tannins.
50% Cinsault, 26% Grenache and 24% Syrah from dedicated blocks of the vineyard. — 2 years ago
Pink peppercorn, unexpectedly heavy for rose. Leaving expectations? Lovely with shrimp and duck salad. I’m happy I stocked up — 3 years ago
Dark red-pink color throughout.
Shellfish and herbal perfume on the nose.
Dark chocolate on the palate. — a year ago
Amazing mushroom aroma, as full bodied as a non-Champagne wine. Paired incredibly well with duck. Lucky to try this vintage, which is no longer available for sale. — 2 years ago

Every once in a while I get a craving for a Ruche, so I’m lucky I had this one in the cellar, because they’re hard to find. This is really nice in a relatively lighter style. Nose leaps out of the glass with crunchy, pungent dark berry, a purple floral note, and bit of pink grapefruit rind. There a unique rock dust note too. Fluid in texture and lighter in style, the cleansing grapefruit rind notes predominate on the palate. A nice lightly bitter note on the clingy finish. — 3 years ago
Pink duck wine from rws so good needs to be cold colddd — a year ago
Gorgeous salmon pink, very fine creamy mousse, bright acidity. Notes of strawberry, raspberry, orange peel, lemon peel, red apple, brioche, vanilla, lemon drop, wet stone. Exceptionally long finish. Just a glorious wine alone or with smoked salmon, tuna tartare, duck prosciutto, — a year ago

On open is quite vegetal. Needs an hour at this point to smooth out.
Nose: some game. Savory. Some pink and purple flowers.
Palate: savory. Cherries. Really meaty. Interesting. Still fresh but a wine that demands magret du canard. Good freshness.
Also would kill with duck leg confit.
A very well made Bordeaux.
