I’m tasting the grapefruit-
honey-almond thing in this
one I think.
I can never remember the ingredients,
but this reminds me of a Scorpion mixed drink.
The goofy label and the fact
that this comes from SA had me
skeptical that this would be
“good enough”.
It’s good enough.
Delicious in fact.
The ALC is way down there at a
dancing-in-the-street 12% so
I assumed that there might be a
little sugar in there.
Maybe, but it doesn’t distract.
I’m pretty sure that this is
my first Cinsault rosé.
Now I’m wondering if “The French”
might make Cinsault rosé and if it might
be “drier”.
Let’s see what we can find in
“The Languedoc”.
OK, so that was a “no-brainer”.
Now I have something SPECIFIC
to shop for.
If I can remember.
Wife: Are you talking to yourself
again?
OTWN: No, Binks is channeling
a South African Sommelier.
W: You shouldn’t keep listening
to that dead Weimaraner.
OTWN: But she has great insights.
W: Like what?
OTWN: Like shopping for rosé
in Provence.
W: I’m already packed.
I should be able to remember this now.
Right Binks?
Hang in there.
P.S.
As it turns out, just four days
after drinking this wine, I had
a Provence rosé that I didn’t know
I had in the cooler when I was
drinking this one.
Pretty nice.
