| Call me Maby? Tavel, in the Southern Rhône, is famous for its lively, flavour-packed rosés. These wines were favoured by Louis XIV and continue to impress today. This ripe, Grenache-centric blend is bursting with attractive red berry fruit, spicy garrigue and a hint of cranberry, further enlivened by tangy acidity. A great match for gourmet sausages, grilled pork chops or barbecued chicken. TASTING NOTE: Some thiol and milk aromas here. Weighted, round, fruity, pure with a rich palate. Elegant and chewy finish.
