A delightful rosé made from a blend of Cabernet Franc, Grolleau and Gamay. This rosé is fruity yet dry, making it an accompaniment to lighter fare such as salads, grilled fish, or charcuterie. It also has enough body and flavor to hold up to heartier dishes like roast chicken or pork.

Staff Pick Notes

My Love affair with Loire Valley wines continues and will probably never end, but you are probably here for more concrete info like does this taste good or just is this dry or sweet. Well this is delicious and DRY and also delicious. Used to be a lot of this was made as Rose d'Anjou which is a sweeter style and its that Rose d'Anjou along with White Zin that gave your classic dry Rose a bad name at least state side. So rest assured this is a dry, wonderfully aromatic wine with bright fruit notes and a nice crisp mineral finish. A treat on its own or with fresh cheese or anything that tastes yummy.
