Tasting - Chateau Suau Rose

Name: Chateau Suau Rose
Variety: Bordeaux Rose
Country: France
Region: Bordeaux
Year: 2013
Price: $7.95

Tasting Notes: 88 points - Stephen Tanzer 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Light, lurid pink. Tangerine, raspberry and white pepper on the fragrant nose. Juicy and focused in the mouth, offering zesty red berry flavors with a refreshingly bitter edge. Closes clean and tight, with lingering spiciness and a touch of orange zest.

My review: Floral and light bodied.  Easy to drink. I thought I was tasting steamed fruits which sounds kind of weird.  There weren't a whole lot of descriptors that came to mind for this particular rose.

I had this wine without food.
