Ott Côtes de Provence Rosé Coeur de Grain Château de Selle 2020

93 points Joe Czerwinski (Wine Advocate): "Pale and coppery as usual, Ott's 2020 Cotes de Provence Rose Chateau de Selle boasts restrained aromas of peach, melon and citrus underscored by hints of crushed stone. In the mouth, it's medium-bodied and concentrated, with ample intensity, a slightly creamy texture and a long, mouthwatering finish. Like the other top rosés of Domaines Ott, this is a wine that is often better in its second year. Drink: 2021-2023. (Jul 2021)"

93 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "[$58 list] Pale salmon skin. Mineral-tinged red currant, raspberry, blood orange and white peach scents are complemented by a suave lavender nuance that builds in the glass. Silky and penetrating on the palate, offering concentrated red berry and pit fruit flavors sharpened by a bitter suggestion of orange pith. Finishes very long and smooth, with repeating floral and pit fruit notes. Drink: 2022-2026. (Jun 2021)"

93 points James Suckling: "This is big on drinkability with light cherry, strawberry and peach aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, creamy and minerally with fresh, stony character. Vivid at the end. Another gorgeous Ott. Drink now. (7/30/21)"

93 points Wine & Spirits: "[$58 list] From the Otts' original estate in Taradeau, the vines rooted into rocky limestone terraces surrounded by forest, this has an old-school grandeur to it in 2020. Based on grenache, with cinsault, syrah and mourvèdre, it's rich, smooth and peachy, seasoned with a touch of orange zest and herbs. The fruit's ripeness is balanced by the crunchiness of the acidity, striking an addictive balance. (Aug 2021)"

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "The palest rosé color contrasts with a wine that is full of ripe flavors, of rich pepper and generous red-currant fruits. It is a full wine, packed with bold flavors and acidity in equal, balanced measure. Drink from late 2021. Alcohol 14%. (Sep 2021)"

Producer notes: "65% Grenache, 20% Cinsault, 8% Mourvèdre, 7% Syrah. Crystal-clear, pink-gold hue. The nose opens with the freshness of citrus fruit (pomelo, bergamot) then reveals elegant floral notes mingled with yellow peach and mango. The wine fresh and silky on entry and then grows on the palate revealing aromas of kumquat and a mineral character that lead to a lingering and delicately spicy finish. This wine pairs excellent with all Mediterranean cuisine."
