Frisson Rosé 2025, IGP Méditerranée, France

Elegant, fresh, light, perfumed, mouthwatering and balanced. Slightly lighter in colour and perhaps a little fresher than others from older vineyards, this may well be more versatile than the more famous 'designer-like' rosés. This is a gorgeous wine, with strawberry and citrus notes and a clean, pure and lifted body, making it suitable for all seasons and wonderful with a huge variety of cuisine. Or none at all...

This is a superb wine from the Salin family, specifically sisters Astrid and Capucine, and comes from vineyards that are predominantly in the Provence and Rhône areas (though the Mediterranée zone covers the vast area of regions: Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, Alpes-Maritimes, Ardèche, Bouches-du-Rhône, Corsica [Corse-du-Sud and the Haute-Corse], Drôme, Hautes-Alpes, Var and Vaucluse...!).
It is a regional blend, as you'd expect, of Syrah, Rolle, Grenache & Cinsault.

Fresh, vibrant, cool and delicious.

Now, there is a thing about the label - it does change colour with the cold... not a new piece of technology, but it can be quite nice to know when the wine has reached the temperature that the winery thinks is right for serving. There is a pretty floral logo in the middle of the label that goes blue...!
