Thibaud Boudignon
Rosé de Loire Cabernet Franc Rosé
It took a while but the France notes emerged with some air. Good acidity and freshness here balanced with the berry fruit.

Jun 11th, 2023Go-to rose with anything savory, the red berries and hint of green bell pepper on the finish make this perfect for anything from serious cuisine to a cookout

Apr 8th, 2023Jalapeño, chalk, powdered strawberry, melon, rose hips. Always a surprise.

Jul 30th, 2022A very proper, stand up white that happens to be a rose. Excellent concentration & legs in the glass, with a mesmerizing salmon color. Quite textured & dry on the palate, with quince, white flowers, & an impressive minerality. A lot of wine for 20$ on sale, & food will only help it. Pedigreed maker whose Chenin blancs sell starting 4/5x as much. Paired with harissa chicken & rice.

Feb 13th, 2022Hard to beat a cab franc rose for a light summer fare accompaniment where you’re looking for a subtle hit of peppery green flavors alongside the strawberry, watermelon and bubblegum

Apr 22nd, 2021Nose has Clementine peel, ripe strawberry, moist chalk, sea salt, cotton candy and dried cherries.
Palate has ripe strawberry, tart orange, orange zest, watermelon rind with great acidity and a medium finish.
Lovely bottle, landed at $15! Is it the cure, not sure, but I'm one step closer to gathering with groups of wine-loving friends again.

Lovely fresh wild berry fruit with a healthy hit of pyrazine and flowers. Great intensity and acid - will see if I can hold my remaining 2 bottles a year or two to see how things evolve...
