Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Tavel Rosé was the favoured wine of The Sun King, Louis XIV of France (1638-1715). Now you’ll look bright for serving it at your table. Remarkably robust. Made with mostly Grenache with Cinsaut in support. Aromas feature strawberry, Asian pear, candy apple, sour cherry and a hint of earth. Serious, dry rosé with fairly impressive oomph to the mid-palate and the tangy, flavourful finish. Source: Vintages Wine Panel
