Font-Sane Emotion d'un Soir Rosé 2012 (#10-26)
|
$14.00

Primarily Grenache with some Syrah and Cinsault, this is an unusually full-bodied rose'! The color alone hints at something special and this wine delivers. Rather than a 'sit & sip' wine, it goes much better with food, e.g., cold-boiled shrimp with slices of avocado, maybe a vegetable quiche on the side . . . a cold roast beef salad . . . even a club sandwich! This robust rosé will not disappoint.
