 Tasted by WNissen on 7/28/2015: I lost this bottle, but thanks to its Screwcap there is still plenty of fresh, fruity character to be had. Good+. (1220 views)
 Tasted by WNissen on 7/27/2014: Still going strong, surprisingly. Light, fruity, simple, almost dry, refreshing with food. Excellent value. Good+. (1361 views)
 Tasted by DanSm on 7/9/2014 & rated 82 points: Great QPR, Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault. The French know their rose. (1299 views)
 Tasted by tastark on 5/14/2014 & rated 80 points: Not my favorite type of rose, but a well made wine for the price. Simple and straight forward. (1495 views)
 Tasted by studleytrey on 4/19/2014 & rated 84 points: Coral-pink color. Nose is tight, but there's a bit of watermelon coming through. Medium body and finish, light acid, and tastes like a watered down jolly rancher with a light touch of mineral, which is not as bad as that sounds; however, this is pretty uninspired rosé to me. Still enjoyable enough for me on the porch in this beautiful weather, but more acid and mineral would be welcomed here. (1586 views)
 Tasted by sunalsorises on 3/19/2014 & rated 85 points: Nice simple rose. Good value at under $6. (682 views)
 Tasted by csnash22 on 12/10/2013 & rated 82 points: Non-distinct aroma with flavors of in ripe cherries and plums. Nice enough wine, but missing anything distinctive or noteworthy. A bit of decanting may add a small hint of minerality, but you are still likely better off with a rose from your local winery. (607 views)
 Tasted by DanSm on 10/30/2013 & rated 82 points: Great for the price. (597 views)
 Tasted by sunalsorises on 9/1/2013 & rated 85 points: A bit sweet on the finish but good value. (572 views)
 Tasted by DanSm on 8/22/2013 & rated 82 points: Nice for the price (567 views)
 Tasted by DanSm on 7/23/2013 & rated 82 points: Pleasant and nice color for a rose. (563 views)
 Tasted by BodegaMateo on 7/12/2013 & rated 82 points: No nose, just dont know... (503 views)
 Tasted by Yiannis on 7/1/2013 & rated 84 points: Fairly deep orange-pink. Sweet nose of strawberry and cherry candy. Medium-bodied with moderate acidity and a sweet-ish, medium aftertaste. Simple and somewhat one-dimensional. (902 views)
 Tasted by Windyrhythms on 6/30/2013 & rated 79 points: Very inexpensive Rose. I paid less than $10 at Safeway. this is a light balanced little wine, not much flavor. Not too sweet or too tart. Passable on a hot summer day with friends at a BBQ. The wine is a pretty deep pink. (499 views)
 Tasted by Alric on 6/1/2013 & rated 82 points: Mit delphine zum pokalfinale (625 views)

La Vieille Ferme (Perrin & Fils)

Producer website

U.S. Importer (Addt'l Info)

Red Rhone Blend

Read about the different grapes used to produce red and white Rhone wines
On CellarTracker, Red Rhone Blend is the term for a wine consisting of two or more of the traditional 13 Southern Rhone grape varieties. Typically it's the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre or Cinsault grapes, but can also contain the Muscardin, Counoise, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul, Roussanne, Terret Noir, Picardan or Vaccarese grapes.

A 'food' wine. Lacking pretension and intended for local consumption with local cuisine. Lacks the 'high' notes on a Bordeaux, more earthy and sharper so often a better partner to meat dishes with a sauce.
