Name: Dom de la Foret Rose de Mediterranee
Variety: Grenache, Cinsault
Region: Provence
Country: France
Year: 2015
Price: $13

Winery Review: A stony, pure style, with a warm paving stone note framing the dried cherry and rose water notes. The long, watermelon rind—inflected finish is finely tuned. Shows length and cut, staying lacy in feel. 50% Cinsault and 50% Grenache.

My Review: Very light pink-peach in color. Smelled of a sweet floral perfume. On the palate it was initially sweet, then quickly acidic. Best word to describe the tasting experience would be "fresh". Light-bodied with a lingering finish. I didn't completely dislike this wine but it was too sharp for my taste. 

I tasted this without food.
