M. Chapoutier Beaurevoir Tavel 2009
Tavel, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceIt's hard to beat grenache when it is used to make rosé. So lively and fresh, yet dry, the focus is on structure and weight with fine cherry fruit and apricot skin flavours that tone down the fruit and bring up the terroir. Classic Tavel styling and finish. The perfect chicken wine but is versatile enough to match most chilled luncheon selections. Or go in a different direction withy sushi.
