A subtle and pretty serious rosé here with some nectarines, green plums, white cherries and stones. Bone-dry and textured with a bright streak of acidity that cuts through the medium-bodied palate. A fine, delicious austere edge, too. 8% carmenere, 6% cabernet franc, 4% syrah and the rest cabernet sauvignon. 11% of the wine went into first-used barrels toasted with local trees. Drink now.
