This is a stunningly fresh, light Rosé as served all along the Mediterranean coast from Monte-Carlo down to the Spanish border.  Sometimes known as the Map Bottle for its portrayal of the St Tropez peninsula on the label, it is a past winner of the coveted Cep D’Or award.

We first discovered this Rose while in Bordeaux in August of 2008.  Since then, it’s become one of the best-selling roses in our stores.

Winemaker's Notes:

Pink-salmon in color leading to a bouquet of wild flowers and pink grapefruits. The flavors are upfront with exotic fruits, citrus and a little spice. Serve it chilled as an aperitif with a runny brie and fresh strawberries and also matches nicely with colorful salads topped with cold shrimp.

Josh Raynolds International Wine Cellar 88 Points

Light, bright pink. High-pitched, aromatic bouquet of strawberry and orange zest, with an exotic touch of honey. Supple and spicy on the palate, offering plump red fruit flavors lifted by tangy acidity. Fresh and linear on the red-fruity finish. I like this wine's blend of richness and vivacity.
