Reviews and Ratings

Courtney Flood rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

watermelon, rhubarb, and wild strawberry with a touch of grassy and licoric-ey (a word?) tarragon. Extremely pale, pretty and very elegant. A good balance of acidity, without being "tart" at all. This light and elegant wine needs to be paired with something pretty light; a green salad, or seafood tower (thing chilled poached shrimp, lobster) or on its own to really appreciate it.
Malcolm Lamont - WSET Adv, CSW rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

A beautiful colour, in the pale pink with a hint of peach on the appearance.

Lovely on the nose with fresh raspberry, strawberry watermelon, and something I describe as fruitburst (think squeezing a juicy pommelo and the burst of citrus freshness that ensues).

Beautiful fullness on the palate and a delicate elegance that lingers for a minute or more. This wine is very well done.
Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Dry Cotes De Provence Rosé with lovely notes of strawberries and garrique. My fav style of Rosé. Pair with charcuterie, black olives, and summer afternoons.
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Lovely! Aromas of strawberry, white peach, watermelon, and a hint of lavender. Light and refreshing on the palate, with medium acidity, lots of fresh strawberry on the palate, and a slightly herbaceous finish. Enjoy with smoked salmon.
Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

South of France in a glass!
Enticing aromas of cranberry, white flowers and a hint of bergamot pull through to a persistent citrus finish.
Wonderful with light pasta dishes or simple pizza.
Tasted November 2019.
Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Who doesn't love a Rosé from Provence?

This is a lovely blend of Grenache and Cinsault that makes your mind wander to France and sunshine.

Dry - 4 g/l of sugar - the way a Rosé should be! Aromas and flavours of white stone fruit; peach pear and floral notes. Light bodied with fresh acidity. Long fruit finish that makes you want to refill your glass - again and again and again.

This isn't just your typical patio wine - I would drink it year round!

Colette Martin rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Pale pink color and aromas of rhubarb and strawberries. The aromas carry onto the palate with lots of fresh strawberries, watermelon and . Dry refreshing rose with great acidity and a medium finish. Lovely sipping wine.
Ashley Mary M De Minuty 2018 is a Côtes De Provence rosé blend of Grenache and Cinsault. Fragrant with fresh melon, lavender and thyme herb aromas on the nose with ripe stone-fruit, melon, orange citrus and light herb flavours on the palate. Very elegant. Pair with grilled salmon. - Community Wine Reviews
