"Pink coral color. Aromas and flavors of cranberry relish, rose petal, pineapple, and bread crusts with a supple, crisp, dryish light body and a silky, swift finish with notes of watermelon rind and white strawberry with no oak flavor. A light and somewhat tropical French Rosé for easy summer quaffing."

"Light salmon color. This Vin-Gris opens with light red berry and earthy aromas. It shows very good balance and freshness on the palate with lingering hints of ripe berries. Shows just a hint of heat on the finish. A great patio wine, especially with an ice cube or two.80% Grenache, 10% Carignan, and 10% Cinsault hand harvested and fermented and aged on the lees in stainless steel for 3 months. - Don WINKLER"

"Aromas of currant, lime and watermelon rind unfold on the nose of this attractive rosé, with a hint of cherry in the back. The palate is balanced and easy-drinking, with ample acidity to balance the riper fruit tones than the nose initially offered. The finish is quick, but clean. Drink now. - LAUREN BUZZEO"

"This 2019 Vin Gris made predominantly of Grenache begins with a fragrance of summer berries. There’s good intensity of cherry and red plum on the palate with a nice balance between sweet fruit and brisk acidity. It can handle food but also a flavorful sipping wine. Handpicked 80% Grenache, 10% Carignan, and 10% Cinsault. - Don WINKLER"

"Pale salmon pink. Revealing a perfumed bouquet of strawberries and rose petals, this is a mineral-driven, fresh and refreshing rosé. It offers a savory, slightly saline palate with notes of dried herbs and dried berries. A blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Carignan, 10% Cinsault. 13.5% alc. Well priced. - Don Winkler"

"Plenty of ripe cherries, spice, and even a touch of salty minerality emerge from the 2017 Vin Gris Rosé. Nicely balanced, medium-bodied, and with good acidity, it’s one heck of a rosé for 13 bucks."

"A selection made by importer Fran Kysela, the 2016 Vin-Gris Rosé is a blend of 80% Grenache and 10% each of Carignan and Cinsault. It has a clean, classic style as well as notes of cherry blossom, crushed rocks and dried strawberries. With medium-bodied richness, nicely integrated acidity and clean, dry finish, it’s another terrific Rosé from the Corbières that’s ideal for drinking over the coming 4-5 months. - Jeb Dunnuck"

"Very light orange. Aromas and flavors of tangerine and raspberry are enlivened by a peppery nuance that builds as the wine opens up. Supple and broad, showing good heft and a bit of clinging warmth on the red-berry-dominated finish."
