D* Domaine Eugene Carrel Rosé de Savoie, 2022

NOTE: As part of our Explorer Series some labels may be slightly stained/damaged, but wines are first quality.

The Savoie region, running along the western foothills of the French Alps, is well known for it’s crisp, clean wines, and this rosé is no exception. Mostly Gamay, with a touch of Mondeuse, the mouthfeel is really the star of the show here.

This little Alpine sipper brings zippy bright red-fruited acid out first, and then a lovely silky minerality on the finish. Perfect for picnics, and an excellent converter of non-believers (for anyone who isn’t on the rosé train yet).

Food Ideas: Spicy summer greens with strawberries and walnuts, smoked trout dip, grilled sausages, swinging feet off boat docks
