“From an estate close to the sea, the wine always has a slightly saline character that gives a fragrance. It is rich, dense and full of red and tropical fruits. Drink the wine now. Organic.”

“This is a rich wine, its Mourvèdre giving concentration and a fine structure. From one of the Ott domaines, it has spice as well as layers of red fruits. Drink from later this year. Organic.”

“Smoothly textured, this wine with its classic dominance of Grenache and Cinsault is rich. It has a lively backdrop to the ripe red berry fruits that are freshened with orange zest. Drink the wine now. Organic.”

“This has purity and persistence to the sweet peach, watermelon and dried strawberry flavors, with a chalky mineral spine supporting a juicy, round palate marked by herb and smoke undertones. Shows surprising length, which is driven by pink grapefruit acidity and talclike tannins. A serious, well-made rosé. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2025.”

“The 2022 Rosé Château Romassan wafts up from the glass with a pretty blend of stone dust and savory herbs bwild strawberry hints. It’s silky and pliant on the palate, showing crisp orchard fruits, sour citrus and minerals that add a more tactile feel toward the close. This finishes potent and with admirable length. Young peach and sage hints slowly fade.”
