🍷 Wine Wednesday: Looking for my summer rosé! 💕
We did a blind Rhône Valley tasting and this 2024 Mas des Bressades came out on top. Pale pink, super dry, with zippy lemon and green apple vibes — no sugar, no fuss.

Swipe to see the color difference from the 2020 vintage (longer skin contact = deeper pink).

Pairs perfectly with cured meats, cheese, and sunny hangs. Got a fave rosé? Tell me below! 👇🏾

I opened up this 2021 Coudoulet de Beaucastel Côtes-Du-Rhone white wine on the weekend and I feel it deserves a place in your cellar. Not necessarily to collect, but it was so enjoyable that I ended up finishing the bottle over 2 days. It has mild acidity with notes of peach, honey, a bit of citrus, and is medium bodied with smooth tannins. So well balanced! It pairs well with cheese and charcuterie as well as fish and poultry. I paired it with trout for dinner then cornish hen the next day. Delish! This southern Rhone is a blend of 30% Bourboulenc, 30% Marsanne, 30% Viognier and 10% Clairette.
