TALES FROM A TASTING

Frosted glass and pink wine, it’s like something out of a dream. And, for any of you rose aficionados, the Lafage Rose is a dream! It’s just slightly more fruity than our usual Provencial Roses. But, a dry finish and an ever-present crispness keep it well balanced.

When I first took a sip, it tasted like a glass of summer to me; strawberries intermingle with the sea air of the French Mediterranean. It’s the taste of pure happiness. Feeling inspired by that summer taste, I paired it with a fresh lobster roll. For anyone out there who is looking to get the most out of their summer food & wine experience. Pair our New England summer classic lobster roll with a glass of Lafage Rose . I promise you’ll be hooked. 😉
