Couple of wines tasted over last 4 days:
2007 Ch. de Roquefort "Corail" rosé (Cotes de Provence) This was with some ham and a mixture of beet greens and broccoli rabe. Strawberries and cherries marinated in citrus. Good acidity, a pleasing bitter note in background, very tasty. On days 2 & 3 the citrus/bitter had faded, but still a tasty simple rosé. Label says Grenache, Styrah, Cinsault, Carignan, Vermentino. & Clairette. B/B+ * 2006 St Cosme Cotes du Rhone This was with a lamb chop. Good body for a CdR, a peppery note over fairly dense dark berry fruit. Some tannins, ok length. Holds up well overnight. Not running out for more, but might pick up if I wanted to fill a case, and it's got enough body to last for a while. B * Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency. |
