Mas Jullien 2023 Languedoc Rose

"Largely Cinsault together with Mourvedre, and a full pink-onion skin in the glass, this emphatic rose bursts from the glass with notions of rose petals, sweet strawberries and cherries, and potpourri scents; hints of orange rind and spice add complexity. Texturally full yet with incisive acidity and near-red tannins, this is not light-years away from the Chateau Simone Rose. Further sweet red fruits, especially strawberries and some macerated cherry, orange rind, dried herbs, and dash of bitters on the close." - David
