How wine-like is it?
Separate from the score. A convincing resemblance is not a higher rating.
More pink drink than rosé. Soft strawberry, low acid, and a candy-pink close. The fruit is there. The wine structure is not.
The wine
Short and candy-pink — that is the whole closing argument.
Soft strawberry opens; little else arrives. Sweet-leaning, light, and low on acid, the pour stays simple from first sip to that brief pink exit.
Very cold is the only serve that helps.
72 sits below the median of the 33 dealcoholized Rosé bottles we've tasted.
