NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This delightful rosé from Château Roubine Lion & Dragon is a complex and nuanced blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault.The nose is a delightful expression of floral aromas, with hints of rose petal, raspberry, and strawberry. On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied and lively, with a core of bright red berry fruit flavors, balanced by gentle acidity and a pleasing mineral streak. The finish is long and refreshing, with a lingering hint of spice. Enjoy this lovely Cru Classé with a variety of foods, from grilled seafood and salads to light pasta dishes.

ORIGINS

Winery: Château Roubine

Region: Provence

Nestled in the south of France, Provence is a Mediterranean paradise for wine lovers. With its stunning landscapes, mild climate, and rich history, Provence as a wine region is more than just the home to refreshing holiday rosé wines. The history of winemaking in Provence dates back to the ancient Greeks, who first planted vines in the region in 600 BC. Since then, the region has become renowned for its unique terroir and its production of high-quality wines. In the 19th century, the region experienced a period of decline due to the phylloxera epidemic, but it has since recovered and is now one of the most important wine regions in France.
