  Nice and light, had with a dinner of baked lemon pepper cod. Lovely pink color in the glass, nice legs. Fruity nose. Dry with hints of slightly tart strawberry and delivers on the promised floral bouquet. Delightful with the fish and veggies (leeks and mixed vegetables). Would definitely purchase this wine again.

  RUSSK Had with Fish Taco's. LHF and i still liking Rose, with dinner and more than whites. This was almost as good as the Atmosphere, but a bit more bitterness in the finish. No reason to buy this over the other.

  Color of golden pink. Dry and crisp with notes of subtle strawberry and florality. Would pair OK with spicy food. Mid-palate is a bit light and finish is short. OK, average, seems that it was not vinified expressly for rosé.

  This is an old staple Cotes de Provence Rose for warm summer afternoons and light lunches on the back porch. Hints of strawberry and garnet in a pleasant tasting offering. The 2009 version is better than most years and has a nice finish and lingers a little longer than prior years. It has a light golden pink color and a pleasant nose. It's not Domaine Ott but it will do for most guests.
