2019 Réserve de la Saurine



Wonderful Rosé. Subtle. Subtle notes in the nose: grass, lemon. Subtle notes in the taste: heated summer meadow, honey, citrus. All together makes great impression.
Was great with walleye grilled on a cedar plank.

2018 Malene Rose



Advertising this wine, Haskell's tried to convince me that it's if not better than Rosé from Provence, but pretty close. My take: not close, not at all. Very simple taste, nothing special. Drinkable, and that's the best I can say.

2019 King Rabbit



King Rabbit Rosé, bought at Whole Foods. From South of France. Very good wine for a warm summer day, to have with seafood.
Nose of a hot summer meadow, not a blooming meadow, just grass. In a taste: just a hint of citrus, very subtle bitter note, and a bit of play on a tong.
Was great with seafood paella.
