"Medium dark pink. This is very good wine, revealing a soft perfume of fresh field strawberries that carries over to a flavorful, well balanced palate, finishing dry and crisp. A beautiful Tavel. A blend of 60% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Cinsault, 10% Mourvèdre. 5% Bourboulenc and 5% Clairette."

"The knock-out, full-bodied 2012 La Dame Rousse Tavel Rose (60% Grenache and the rest Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvedre, Bourboulenc and Clairette) offers complex notes of flowers, raspberries, loamy soil, pepper and spice. Dry, exuberant and loaded with personality as well as character, it should provide plenty of pleasure over the next year. - RP"

"A blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Cinsault and 10% Clairette, the knockout 2012 Tavel Rose La Dame Rousse has lively watermelon, cherry and mineral aromas that all come soaring from the glass. Beautifully pure and delineated on the palate, with juicy acidity and a seamless texture, this seriously classy rose has both richness and freshness. While it will drink nicely for 2-3 years, bottles won’t last that long in my house. Drink now-2013. - JD"

Light, bright pink. A sexy, highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red fruit, blood orange, candied lavender and smoky minerals. Concentrated but lively and precise on the palate, offering intense raspberry, bitter cherry and orange zest flavors and a hint of white pepper. Shows excellent clarity and stony cut on the finish, which lingers with impressive persistence and resonating florality. - Josh Raynolds"

"(a blend of 60% grenache, 10% cinsault, 10% mourvedre, 10% syrah and 5% each of bourboulenc and clairette): Bright orange-pink. High-pitched red berry and citrus zest scents show very good clarity and a hint of potpourri. Clean, stony and precise, with dense redcurrant and bitter cherry flavors and a bright pink grapefruit nuance. Finishes with excellent energy and lift, leaving a red berry skin note behind."
