Three Choirs Rosé 2010
£7.50 11% The Wine Society
A thirst-quenching pink full of the aromas of strawberries and summer fruits.70% Seyval, 25% Triomphe, 5% Regent.
Sweet cherry nose. Quite a dark pink for English rosé. Full-flavoured and with some sweet cherry.
Côte de Provence Rosé du Vallon 2010
£10.50 13% The Wine Society
A lovely salmon pink, mourvèdre-dominated wine made by Jean-Jacques and Romain Ott, the biggest names in Provence rosé. Perfect with a stir fry or some grilled tuna. Round, creamy yet fully dry with a touch of spice.
Very visually pleasing. Colourless glass, with very plain cream label and pale salmon colour. Dry, savoury and very grown up. Not a cherry in sight.
