Mymi Thesingingsommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

So what would it take for Stéphane Vedeau, the owner and winemaker at ‘La Ferme Du Mont’ in the Southern part of Les Côtes du Rhône to even be interested in purchasing a piece of land to add to his vineyard collection? In his words, he is “terroir-attracted” and looks for fresh minerality in the soil.
Not only do you find that fresh minerality in the wines that he carefully crafts but you also taste the land and that natural harmonious balance that he skillfully maintains through the winemaking process. His wines are all organic products, free of chemicals and pesticides, the fertilizers are organic in nature and he even uses ambient or natural yeasts to ferment the wines.
This fabulously food friendly rosé is 100% Grenache!
In the glass, it is reminiscent of some familiar Provencal rosés with its pale salmon pink color.
There are subtle hints of toasted coconut, freshly grated nutmeg, mandarin and violet on the nose.
The mouthfeel is voluptuous and falls in my “sexy wines” category. Oh WOW! Dry with a perfect balance between acidity and alcohol… Gentle and fruity notes of nectarines and citrus. Who said a wine of this color had to be sweet?!!!
Perfect accompaniment to light summery pasta and Asian dishes. Heavenly with seafood dishes!
