French Rose
WINERY NOTES: Jean-Luc Colombo has forged an international reputation as one of the most visionary and imaginative winemakers in France’s Rhone Valley and especially in Cornas. ‘My passion is to create wines that give people pleasure. I want each glass to be like a song praising the simple but important things in life: observing nature, enjoying food and sharing with others.Cape Bleue comes from a place near Marseille. The vines grow on calcareous rocks overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and a landscape composed of peaceful olive trees and the garrique. This dry Rosé, blend of Syrah and Mourvedre, has complex flavors of fresh raspberries, cherries, a hint of black olive and finishes with an elegant touch of freshness and spice. Serve with a wide range of fish, poultry and vegetarian fare or as simply as an aperitif at a cafe terrace by the water’s edge!
