2007 CORAIL Rosé Côtes de Provence Château de Roquefort $15
Wild strawberry, pink grapefruit and honeysuckle aromas are brightened by dusty minerals and white pepper. Racy red fruit flavors are light in body and possess impressive clarity. Firm citrus and red fruit flavors leave a juicy impression in their wake.

2007 Château Virgile Costières de Nîmes Rosé $13
Aromas of strawberry and cherry dominate the nose. This is a rosé full of substance and concentration, with strawberry and raspberry flavors that linger on the palate. These bright red fruit flavors are balanced by a refreshing acidity in the finish. This rosé, served chilled, is perfect for food pairings that demand more than a white, but might be overwhelmed by a red.

2004 Domaine Stainte-Eugénie Corbières $13
