Year after year, this mouthwatering rosé is an approachably priced, stand-out pick amid an excellent lineup of Tavel bottlings. It's weighty and concentrated yet always invigorating, packed with crisp-tart blackberry and black-cherry flavors marked by complexities of bramble, garrigue and earth. A wine worth drinking beyond the summer months, it should fare beautifully through 2023.

Offering up aromas of cherries, blackberries, dark chocolate and spices, the 2018 Moulin-à-Vent Clos du Grand Carquelin is medium to full-bodied, deep and muscular, with a concentrated core of fruit and ripe but youthfully chewy structuring tannins. More integrated than the 2017 was at the same age, its élevage in wood is largely imperceptible.
