Nose has fresh peach, dried apricot, yellow raspberry, day old orange peel and wet sand.
Palate has Clementine orange slice, raspberry juice, dried strawberry, orange zest with mild acidity and medium finish. Our final bottle, glad it's held solid all this time. 👍
Rosé de Grenache 30%, Syrah 20%, Cinsault 20%, Vermentino 20% & Carignan 10%.
A very solid pairing to a middle eastern style dish. We flattened chicken breasts, dredged them in a flour/za'atar/aleppo pepper blend, then gently fried. They were topped with a salad of scallion/lemon zest/walnuts/lemon juice. The dish was 95 points!

A beautiful, cool early Autumn evening, relaxing by a fire in the chiminea.
Peach, raspberry, strawberry, moist sand, Clementine peel, stainless steel.

This wine is more about the setting it compliments than the flavors it resembles. A fire pit on a crisp autumn night with friends - hits the spot.
If flavor is more your style, orange peel and tart red berries. I paired it with s’mores and a flannel shirt.

Getting our July 4th celebrations into motion.
Showing better than the last time we opened this. Raspberry/Peach, light steely mineral. Yum!

Better fruit than a many Provence rosés I've enjoyed over the years! Yum, and about $11!

Mar 1st, 2018It's officially Spring in New England, as witnessed by the 4-6" of snow still covering our property. 🤨
This means it's chimnea time again 🔥 and I've collected some snow into a sizeable mound to act as our outdoor chill station for hopefully the next 6 weeks or so 🤞.
Today's theme is wines we can drink slightly colder and still have some appreciating quality.
Light red fruits with a steely finish, nice acidity. Not overly complicated, but simple, quaff-able and easy on our budget at just over $10/bottle. This will be wonderful once the (real) warm weather arrives.
