2007 Cuvée Tradition Rosé AOC Minervois, Massammier Le Mignarde

"Senior sibling to the delightful 'Oliviers Rosé' this is an Appellation Minervois rather than a Vin De Pays. Its blend is 50% Cinsault, the balance divided between Syrah and Grenache. Its colour is rich, plush, its weight good, with balanced acidity and lively red fruit notes en bouche and even a hint of licorice on the finish. Fine with crustacean dishes, with salads or lighter meats."
