This week marks the arrival of the 2009 Rosé, a Spring favorite!
“This bright dry wine, a saignée of 37% Cinsault, 35% Counoise, 12% Grenache, 11% Mourvedre, 5% Carignan is loaded with strawberry and watermelon flavors. Delightfully fruity, yet complex and flavorful; this is the perfect accompaniment to summer meals.”
Stop by the winery and have a taste, it’s happiness in a glass!
