La Vieille Ferme 2005 Cotes du Ventoux Rose
Here's a wine we actually haven't tried ourselves, but the review we read recently really got our tastebuds going. Matt Kramer at
The Oregonian had the following to say about the 2006 varietal of this wine:
That said, this 2006 Cotes du Ventoux rose from the shipper La Vieille Ferme is one of the best roses I've had in quite a while. It's got everything that a really good rose should deliver: genuinely flavorful yet delicate fruitiness allied to refreshing acidity. And it has a nice watermelon-hue tint.
A blend of cinsault (50 percent), grenache (40 percent) and syrah (10 percent), this fruity yet fully dry rose combines the cherry taste of grenache with just a touch of "black fruit" flavor from syrah. It's a terrific rose, attractively packaged (with a desirable screw cap).
Not too shabby, and it's available online at Wine.com for under $10.
