Clos Sainte-Magdeleine Rosé 2011 Provence France

Clos Sainte-Magdeleine Rosé 2011 Cassis ( normally famous for its whites) in Provence France by Yapp Brothers at £14.25, it is from  François Sack’s estate using the Provence grapes Grenache, Cinsault and Mourvèdre. It has an enticing salmon pink colour and aromas of tinned strawberries, nectarine, tangerine and honeysuckle flowers, these are softly echoed on the palate which is dry and has a medium length and a slightly salty finish. The alcohol (12.5%) is well integrated and the texture feels in the right place.
Score : 87
