Pure pinot noir, this seductively soft, sexy wine is in huge demand, thanks to its charming hue, ripe strawberry flavours and a certain cachet. One of france's best-kept secrets is that the touraine region of the loire grows tiny amounts of delicious pinot noir. Most is turned into supple, fruit-laden reds but a little is crafted into wonderful roses like this which rival the far pricier roses of sancerre. Les deux clochers is a top find from a lovely vintage. With careful tending, jacques vigier keeps his yields very low giving his pinot noir - a variety notoriously difficult to grow - great quality and ripeness. With delicate red berry aromas, this elegant, refreshing rose is brimful of soft fruity charm. Enjoy with seafood, seared tuna or cured ham. |
