Tasting - Sainte Victoire Cotes de Provence Rosé

Name: Sainte Victoire Cotes de Provence Rosé
Variety: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault
Region: Provence
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95

Critic Review:  "Bright salmon pink; typical of the fresh but warm Provence style. Refined and complex on the nose, with summer fruit and floral notes. Dry and crisp, with a delicate flavor and full texture."


My Review:  The smell was slightly fruity and floral.  To me, the wine tasted dry and bitter.  I could also taste the floral, which was prominent in the smell.  However, I thought this wine had a bad after-taste.  This wine was lacking taste and seemed very plain.  I did not really enjoy this Rosé.

I tasted this wine without food.
