Winery Review:
A stony, pure style, with a warm paving stone note framing the dried cherry and rose water notes. The long, watermelon rind - inflected finish is finely tuned. Shows length and cut, staying lacy in feel. 50% Cincault and 50% Grenache.

My Review:
This wine smells almost of bubble gum but not quite. It smells like a pretty peach color with a sweet pleasing hint of watermelon. It was a nice smell but nothing special, nothing really stuck out. The taste was more dry for a rose with a clean finish that is very nice. When you finish this sip, the wine is gone and the flavor does not linger. There was a little bit of watermelon flavor, but just a touch. Overall it seems this wine would pair nicely with light lunch food. This wine was tasted without food.
