It would be difficult to find a better rosé than this. Succulent, intense, weighty enough and fresh, all at once. Too often a difficult equation. Mourvedre-dominance sweeps away excess fruit while serving up loganberry, musk stick, frangipani, orange zest and dried thyme, all skittering across a sandy fretboard, while a ferrous chord evinces authority. Superb drinking. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Mataro and Grenache here. Subdued, textural and very good. Redcurrant, aniseed, a wet clay savouriness, nashi pear. It’s fine and soft in acidity, yet still fresh, with a smooth powdery texture, maybe a tangerine juiciness, and a pretty long and zesty finish. Very good.

A pale salmon-colored rosé with aromas of rose petals, cherries, sliced apples and grapefruits. Crisp and fruity with a medium body and round, nicely dry and flavorful finish. Mourvedre and grenache. Drink now. Screw cap.
