$22, 2 stars, 87 points, france, grenache, rhone, rose, syrah, Tavel


Medium salmon colored, with low viscosity (13% ABV).  The nose has medium (-) intensity aromas of strawberry, lemon zest, orange blossom, lanolin, and hint of white cherry.  The palate is dry, with medium (+) acidity and a medium (-) body.  Medium intensity flavors lead to a somewhat short finish.  I was hoping for a bit more out of this $22 offering, akin to the 2022 vintage I recently tasted.  This one gets 87 points and 2 stars from me.  Drink soon.  Salut….

$25, 3 stars, 89 points, france, grenache, rhone, rose, syrah, Tavel


Medium strawberry in color with high viscosity (14% ABV).  Medium intensity aromas of strawberry, tangerine, cranberry, pomegranate and orange blossom.  The palate is dry with medium (+) acidity, a medium body and hint of tannic grip due to the slightly longer skin contact this region is known for (hence the darker color).  Strawberry, cranberry, pomegranate and a touch of orange/tangerine are the flavors I get that lead to a medium (-) length finish.  Rosé is a summer wine but the structure of the Tavel wines makes them more versatile with seasons and food.  Our pairing tonight is Tacos, should work nicely.  89 points from me for this $25 bottle makes it a 3 star effort to drink till 2027.  Salut….
