Bargain Rose....





2011 Villa des Anges Old Vines Rosé...$11.99
"A sleeper selection, Cinsault is often a small component in many Southern Rhone blends, but it also makes fragrant, delicate and intriguing roses. This 100% Cinsault is an incredibly delicate, light-colored rose offering a sensational perfume of spring flowers, cranberries, cherries, earth and flowers. Medium-bodied with good underlying acidity, not a lot of weight or forcefulness, but wonderful delicacy as well as an ethereal quality, this beauty is best consumed over the next six months."
Rated 89/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
