Tasting Note: 2007 Chateau Saint Cosme Gigondas Rosé

Coppery salmon in color.  Almost ripe raspberry and strawberry fruit.  Freshly diced fennel bulb and river rock minerality add layers to the delicate fruit aromas.  There is a hint of pepper/clove spice. The medium(-) bodied frame finishes with juicy acidity, citrus-y grapefruit, and bone dry. Again, nicely balanced and refreshing.  

100% Mourvedre, 13.5% alc

Paired nicely with "Modified" Costa Rican Gallo Pinto with Lizano- sautéed garlic, onion, red bell pepper mixed with black beans, cilantro and warm quinoa topped with Worchester/Tunisian hot red pepper sauce.
