Provence is known for their Rosé. Finding a wallet-friendly offering from Provence, it was a foregone conclusion that I would buy a bottle. Wouldn’t you?
Winemaker: J.L. Quinson
Wine: Rosé
Vintage: 2014
Appellation: Côtes de Provence AOC, France
Price: $7.99 at Trader Joe’s
Notes: This blush wine was an interesting shade of pink. It had a tinge of orange to it. It was light-bodied with good acidity. The bouquet was very faint with just-there scents of strawberry and pepper. Alcohol was at 12.5%. Flavors I found were simple but pleasant, including strawberry, grass, and a touch of pepper. Nothing surprising here in a very good way. This is a Rosé I would be happy to drink again.
