Description

What's better than a well-chilled glass of juicy, refreshing Rosé? We've put together a case of our very favourites for this Summer, all awarded as an assurance of quality. Southern France a source of superb value dry, crisp and pale Rosé. This mix brings together all the lovely berry fresh flavours of classic Southern French Rosé.

Collection includes:

2 x Fortant De France Grenache Rosé 2019 (France)

AWARED GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert & Gaillard

Deliciously crisp release from France’s most lovely region for Rosé, the Languedoc. Long hours of sun and cooling sea breezes produce wines with subtlety and balance. Pretty berry notes with a citrusy zip.

The Skalli family, with its long background in winemaking, has been based in the South of France since 1961. In the early 1980s, members of the family visited California where they discovered a new approach to winemaking in the Napa Valley, north of San Francisco which focused on using a single varietal in order to bring out the wine’s true personality.

2 x Villa Blanche Grenache Rosé 2019 (France)

AWARED GOLD MEDAL: Mundus Vini 2020

Exquisitely pale pink of great brilliance in the glass. The nose is floral, with notes of aniseed, rose and white blossom. Succulent, well-balanced, fruity and fresh at the same time, it reveals notes of citrus but also white peach, apricot and a touch of almond and mint. A beautifully long finish confirms this as a structured Rosé that is not only excellent for drinking immediately.

2 x Domaine Lafage Côté Rosé 2019 (France)

Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2020

"Delicate and attractively expressed, the bouquet shows nectarine, lemon peel, floral and subtle spice aromas with a hint of sweet strawberry. It's finely focused and juicy on the palate, delivering vibrant mouthfeel and crisp acidity, making it delightfully drinkable. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2020

"I’ve raved time and time again about the quality - and value - coming from Domaine Lafage’s Jean-Marc Lafage. When it comes to quality-to-price ratios, no one does it better than proprietor Jean Marc Lafage. Located just outside of Perpignan, this estate has a wealth of old vines and vineyards to pull from, and the addition of a massive new winery is only going to give them even more control. While it’s easy to write off these value-priced releases as fruit bombs, please taste the wines! They have beautiful purity of fruit, impeccable balance and each release has their own unique character. At the prices, these are no-brainers" Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Take a sip of this delightful southern French Rosé and let its beguiling floral aromas and delicate berry fruit transport you to France's beautiful, unspoiled south. Delightfully refreshing, this pink is full of the joys of summer all year round! Elegant and stylish, white stone fruit, rockmelon, watermelon and citrus with a hint of savoury complexity, followed by a juicy palate that delivers delicate fruit intensity and fine texture, wonderfully framed by crisp acidity.
