The 2014 Château Routas Côteaux Varois Rosé is a classic blend of 45% Cinsault, 35% Grenache and 20% Syrah. The color of ripe watermelon, this Provençal pink has quite a lot going for it, considering the price. Blood oranges, ripe raspberry, watermelon and rose petals grace the nose. On the palate, it's soft and supple with a notes of pie cherries, and finely delineated minerals along with a lovely burst of acidity on the finish. Picnic, anyone?

2014. Very, very light pink. Nose fairly closed offering muted hints of red fruit. Palate is a bit more expansive with touches of cherry, watermelon and raspberry. Nice acid frames the fruit. Very enjoyable especially for the price.
