2011 Domaine D’Eole Provence Rosé

We recently had the opportunity to taste a line-up of 10 or 12 fine  Southern French rosés from the 2011 vintage. Domaine d’Eole was the clear favorite out of the tasting. Eole’s vineyards are planted to six traditional Provençal red varieties, Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Counoise, Mourvedre & Carignan, and are farmed 100% organically. This six grape blend gives the wine an excellent level of complexity, this combined with the wine’s perfect acid balance and abundant flavors makes this an amazingly food-friendly rosé. This one rises above the general class of warm weather sippers into the realm of interesting and satisfying fine wines. We recently served Domaine d’Eole with a grilled salmon with an apricot glaze that had guests raving!

The 2011 Classement of France’s prestigious Revue du Vin de France ranks Eole among the Top 20 domaines in all of Provence.

Wine of the Week! $19.99

Looking for a hard-to-find wine? There are an amazing number of really fine wines being made in the USA or imported from the New or Old World. So many good ones, in fact, that there is not room on the shelves of even the largest wine emporiums to display them all. To address this problem, we now offer over 5000 wines sold by the CASE ONLY (12 BOTTLES), at case-discounted prices. These specially priced 12 bottle lots are available as a lot only, regardless of the original packaging from the winery.To keep this special pricing, no mixing of  vintages, brands or varietals  is possible with this offer. Nearly all of these great wines are available to us on fairly short notice (usually 1 to 3 days). As soon as your order is received, the wine’s current availability is confirmed, then ordered. No charge will be made to your credit card unless we know the wine is on its’ way to us.
