Do you think you might like Rosé this week?
We have a Dry Kermit Lynch French Rosé (That originally sold for $21 a bottle on their website until they sold out) along with 2 Other Dry French Rosés. All 3 Are Still $12, 10% off on 3 bottles ($10.80 a bottle), and 15% off on a case ($10.20 a bottle).
In the words of Kermits Lynch‘s son Anthony:
“The northernmost, coolest appellation of the Languedoc, Pic-Saint-Loup has all the makings of an exceptional terroir for rosé. Its rocky calcareous slopes, covered in garrigue and wild pine forest, reach altitudes that favor vivid fruit and a crackling freshness in wines of all three colors. The Ravaille brothers of Ermitage du Pic Saint Loup, who have practiced biodynamics for more than twenty years, steer far from commercial considerations with their rosé, as its deep color attests. Its intense aromatics brazenly translate the Pic’s rugged nature, and an almost chewable minerality brings to mind slabs of shattered limestone incarnated as energy, drive, and uncommon length on the palate.”
Coteaux du Vendômois, Loire Valley Rosé. Salmon pink color, and golden reflections. Fruit forward (currant, strawberry & grapefruit), and a spicy side, to finish on a nice mineral note (flint) and a peppery finish.
Château Mourgues de Grès “Les Galets Rosés, Rosé, Costières de Nîmes Made with biodanemic grapes. 50%Grenache Noir, 40% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre (you may remember we have the red wine here). Bright rose petal color. Intense red fruit aromas. Dry and crisp with intense flavor. Offers tastes of cherry and strawberry, finishing with subtle spice and note of minerality.
This wine pairs perfectly with spicy, grilled or raw fish such as red tuna or halibut, but also with asian cuisine, Cesar salad, sauteed vegetables or pork chops on the barbecue.
