شاتو مونتود بروفانس روزيه

This is my third bottle this summer—the crisp, dry finish pairs perfectly with grilled chicken and a hot afternoon. It’s refreshing without being watery, exactly what a Provence rosé should be.

The dryness is exactly what I look for in a rose—crisp enough to cut through a light pasta salad but not so tart it needs food. It stayed refreshing from the first glass to the last, even as the evening warmed up.

Opened this after a long afternoon outside and the crisp finish hit exactly right, not overly fruity or sweet like some roses I've tried. It stayed refreshing from the first sip to the last, and paired easily with a light salad without overpowering anything.
