Vivid orange-pink. Fresh red berry, pit fruit and floral qualities on the perfumed nose, along with suggestions of dusty minerals and orange pith. Juicy, focused and energetic on the palate, offering subtly sweet nectarine, strawberry and white pepper flavors that are supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows very good clarity on a long, sappy finish that echoes the floral and pit fruit notes.

Winemaker Notes:
Owner Charles Bieler named this bright, salmon-hued summer classic after his daughter, Sabine-and with such young, dancing, playful sensory influences in the glass, you can easily understand why. This wine-half spicy Syrah, and the rest a mix of Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon-is an endless summer Beach Boys song: sunny fun and picnics on a blanket in the sand. The nose is full of fresh, juicy tangerines, farmers market half-pints of raspberries, and baking spice (think vanilla beans and freshly grated nutmeg). In your mouth, it gets cheeky with a slightly unctuous and silky texture, spice, and a finish full of orange zest. Pack a basket full of salty fried chicken, a bottle of this, and off to wait for tickets to Shakespeare in the Park with you! -- PJ

A lovely blend of 40% Grenache, 35% Cinsault, 10% Syrah, Tibouren, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Light, vivid orange. Mineral-accented red berry and pit fruit aromas are complemented by a subtle floral top note. Silky and energetic, offering fresh strawberry, tangerine and nectarine flavors that deepen with air. Shows sharp delineation and very good persistence on the finish.

The color of this beautiful wine is a stunningly bright and soft shade of pink. Intense and inviting aromas of freshly-picked fruit, strolling through a flower garden. Scents of ripe pineapple, fresh pear and strawberry meet hints of sweet French confections. From the first taste it is zippy, fresh and dances crisp across the tongue. The incredible acidity is met by fresh red and tropical fruits that balance with a clean finish. This dry, classic Rosé is wonderfully balanced and round with a texture that is mouthwatering and savory.

The ideal style of Rosé for any occasion - this is the perfect pairing with friends. Whether an aperitif by the water or with food, this fresh wine is quite versatile. Great matches to this rosé include a variety of fresh, meatier fish and shellfish, summer salads from the garden and the classic French roasted chicken. - Winemaker's notes

4th place finisher in our 2021 vintage Rose taste-off!

MSRP $15, Our old sale price was $11.97, now only $9.97!

Certified Sustainable, no herbicides or pesticides used. 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot. Twenty-five year old vines grown on clay-limestone soil, with lots of rocks in southwest France. This Vin de France rose performs well above it’s pricepoint. A beautiful electric rose petal color. The fruit-forward bouquet is prelude to what is to come. This is a fuller more round style of rose especially compared to Provence. This is a really nice rose for the non-rose drinker.

Always a meticulous farmer, Marine’s commitment to vine health was recently recognized by the French government with HEV (high environmental value) certification. This new certification covers biodiversity conservation, plant protection strategy, management of fertiliser use, and management of water. This recognition only magnified what we already knew about Marine and her fastidious devotion to making a remarkable value wine.

Limpid orange-pink. Displays vibrant, mineral-tinged redcurrant, orange zest and peach scents and an herbal nuance builds in the glass. Taut and racy on the palate, offering tangy red berry and citrus fruit flavors, along with hints of honeysuckle, saffron and tarragon. Fleshes out through the smooth, clinging finish, which leaves blood orange and white pepper notes behind. This wine consistently delivers outstanding value.

Winemaker Notes:
"Whispering Angel is a blend of Grenache, Rolle, Cinsault, Syrah, and Mourvedre grapes. Strikingly pale pink in color, the aromas are fresh and fruity. On the palate, it is bone dry through the finish. The name really suits the delicate nature of this wine."
