Lovely balance in this light-bodied rosé that's packed with fresh field strawberry aromas. Bone-dry and refreshing. Finishes with white pepper. Pair with cold chicken sandwiches.

Rosé food pairings: wine-braised duck, grilled goose breast in cherry wine sauce, duck breasts with bacon and onions.

Reviews and Ratings

This rosé from the Côtes De Provence, Gassier Sables' D'azur (2016) is light-bodied but not so the strawberry fruit and green herbs on the nose. Bone-dry and refreshing, the wine blend is Cinsault, Grenache and Syrah. Pair with cold chicken sandwiches. - Community Wine Reviews
