La Bastide Blanche Bandol Rosé 2004

Lovely color known as the eye of the Partridge. On the nose there are restrained warm strawberries, raspberries, cinnamon and paprika. The apalate is a little more bold, with notes of cream, strawberries, raspberries, hazelnut and roasted herbs. There is a slight oak presence, but nothing that can take away from the creamy and silky texture of this wine. A fine and consistent producer of rosés, year in and year out.
