A light orange to pink in the glass with wild strawberry, new season herbs and citrus zest on the nose; A medium bodied wine with a svelte texture that transitions from summer red fruits to nashi pear whilst holding a lively line of lemon acidity.

Triennes rosé is the perfect accompaniment to a sunny summer afternoon. This wine will seduce you by its freshness and elegance. 70% Cinsault, 25% Grenache, and 5% Merlot
Rameau d’Or Petit Amour Rosé 2020
A salmon to burnt orange in the glass, the nose sees candied red apple alongside citrus, green herbs and red cherry. The palate has great texture with fruit sweetness contrasted by flowing but well integrated acidity; fruit continues in terms of red cherry with a lemon and pomegranate lift. The finish is long and brings you back for another sip. Excellent value. Drink: 2021-2022; Alcohol: 12.5%; Price: $25; Closure: Screwcap; Rating: 91 Points; Patrick Eckel; Wine Reviewer
Le Grand Cros Cotes de Provence Rosé 2019
This is exactly the sentiment that came to me when I recently tasted Grand Cros. The succulent strawberry and melon aromas whisked me away to a sun-drenched terrace overlooking the Med and the touch of fennel surrounded me with native garrigue. With the first sip, I plunged headfirst into cool refreshing waters, and I'll leave what I was wearing up to your imagination. Now THAT'S what you want from a rosé.
