Notes of raspberry, strawberry, and spices. Rosé from Tavel is flavorful, food-friendly, and raspberry pink.

A beautiful Tavel, the 2022 Tavel has ripe strawberry and floral aromatics to go with a medium-bodied, pure, elegant style on the palate offering plenty of Tavel richness and depth while staying fresh, light on its feet, and balanced.

Almost half Grenache, with the rest mostly Cinsault, Clairette, Mourvedre and Syrah, the 2022 Tavel even includes small proportions of Bourboulenc and Picpoul. If you can hold off opening a bottle until this summer, or even into the fall, that would be a good idea, or else decant in advance of serving. Right now, there's a touch of austerity to the wine, with scents of wet stone reducing the impact of red berries and citrus on the nose, and the full-bodied palate seems just a bit pinched and tight but with the potential to blossom in a few months.
