Bottled just a week prior to my April visit, the 2021 Cotes de Provence Rose Rock Angel was still showing well. Scents of toasty oak and vanilla accent tangerine and peach on the nose, giving this medium-bodied rosé an almost creamsicle-like aspect. Generous, silky and long, it might be even better later this year.
A crowd-pleasing rosé, with white strawberry, mineral and rose petal flavors that are graceful and pure. Details of mineral, spice and melon fine-tune the supple finish.
