Just about my first rosé of the summer, pulled this off a local list today, as they were out of anything Provence and everything else was made from inferior grapes.
Onion skin on the pinkish side, it is not 100% Grenache, I think there’s a smattering of Syrah & Cinsault–I forget. Positively unfruity nose, smelling of brackish water and electrical fire. Ditto in the mouth, where a boozy sort of chemical tincture ensures its forgettableness.
