Domaine Houchart Sainte Victoire Rosé 2011
Côtes de Provence, Provence, Sud de France, FranceMany will know Jerome Quiot from Châteauneuf-du-Pape; this is his foray in to rosé from the recently established Sainte Victoire appellation in Provence that is east of Aix-en-Provence. The colour is classic salmon orange. The style is weighty with a rich thread of orange peel and spicy cranberries. The attack is smooth and silky with more orange, cranberry and caramel notes throughout. Try this with grilled fish dishes or steamed mussels.Tasted: 17 June 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $17.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
