"Sporting a classic deeper rosé hue, the 2025 Tavel La Reine Des Bois has gorgeous aromatics of framboise and wild strawberries as well as hints of garrigue and rose petals. It brings a richer, medium to full-bodied style on the palate, a round, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. It will be incredibly versatile and would be just fine on its own as well as shine with heartier fare. Drink it over the coming 1-2 years. Drink 2026-2028."
