Vintage Cellar Tasting - Sainte Victoire

  • Name: Sainte Victoire
  • Variety: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault
  • Region: Provence
  • Country: France
  • Year: 2011
  • Price: $8.95
  • Shop Review: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault.  Bright salmon pink; typical of the fresh but warm Provence style.  Refined and complex on the nose, with summer fruit and floral notes.  Dry and crisp, with a delicate flavor and full texture.
  • My Review: The nose of this rose had a good bit of apple tints to it.  The flavor was also quite appley and citrusy, it was very dry but also light and mellow.  A good relaxing wine with little complexity but nice flavor.
