Hampton Water 2024

Sud de France, FranceJon Bon Jovi and his son Jesse have achieved notable success with their wine venture, Hampton Water, a rosé described as "Born in France and raised in The Hamptons." Collaborating with renowned French winemaker Gérard Bertrand, whose expertise in rosé is widely recognized, the pair crafted a wine that appeals directly to enthusiasts of the style. Hampton Water Rosé, first released in 2018, is a blend of 60% grenache, 15% cinsault, 15% mourvèdre, and 10% syrah. The wine is, as you would expect, fresh and lively, with a palate of strawberry and citrus that finishes dry. It is aged in new oak, but you don't feel it. Celebrity wines seldom deliver authenticity, but in this case, the Bon Jovi family has demonstrated a commitment to authenticity by partnering with an experienced winemaker and maintaining a clear focus on the wine itself.Tasted: 07 September 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
