Gorgeous strawberry juice red hue with aromas of strawberry, almost a touch of citrus and vanilla.
Palate--Juicy, simple, delightful, well structured, tastes "intentional" even carrying a lightly acidic foundation making it decent enough to pair with food. Finishes quickly.
At $10 this is a rare Rosé that is enjoyable and careingly made.
As a Trader Joe's offering which I have had before. *Rosé fell out of fashion in the 70's being peddled as a crappy, cheap quaff kind of made for people who don't like wine. It was virtually all "plonk!" Then years later something happened and wineries started taking rosés seriously and made some very nice ones. During those year Tavel (France) was one of the rare standouts who took pride in making something of a work of art and for some reason a global change took place as global wineries took it seriously and the Rosé revolution took hold.
