Note Bleue Cotes de Provence Rose 2024
$50, 13% alcohol, cork, Provence/France.

As soon as you put your nose anywhere near this wine the aromas, as pure and evocative as the smell of Spring, hit you in attractive waves. This is a beautiful wine to smell and, as it turns out, to taste/drink as well. It tastes of red cherry, cherry blossom and sweet spice, and while it feels dry, grippy and generally sophisticated, it’s also juicy and joyous. A Grade rosé, this one. 94 points.
