3/28 Tasting - Sainte Victoire Cotes de Provence

Name: Sainte Victoire Cotes de Provence
Variety: Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault
Region/Country: Provence, France
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95

Shop's Review: Bright salmon pink; typical of the fresh but warm Provence style.  Refined and complex on the nose, with summer fruit and floral notes.  Dry and crisp, with a delicate flavor and full texture.

My Review:  My nose detected strong hints of grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, and peach.  I tasted grapefruit and peach flavors.  This was a very enjoyable wine.

I did not drink this wine with food.
