Description & Press Reviews:
Entre-Deux-Mers, (between two seas if translated literally), lies between the Dordogne and the Garonne Rivers. This is a predominantly White producing Appellation typically using the famous Bordeaux white grape varieties Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. However it is also an up and coming area for Rose produced using Merlot and Cabernet Franc grape varieties. Wines from this region are well produced with good balance, fineness and lots of fruit. This Rose is no exception.
Produced right in the heart of the region this lovely mouth-watering, crisp, slightly dry, smooth Rose is a delight.
On the nose it produces light, fruity aromas of soft fruits and in the mouth it is fresh, well balanced and has a long after taste. Will enhance array of dishes including Shellfish, White Fish, White Meats and Salads or simply drink it on its own as a delightful aperitif.

Jonathan Ray's Top Ten Favourite Wines
This blend of 60 percent merlot and 40 percent cabernet franc from Entre Deux Mers in Bordeaux is a beguiling rosy pink with elusive hints of wild strawberries on the nose.
Light and understanding rather then full bodied and characterful, it is crisp, dry and very refreshing when serves chilled, either as an aperitif or with simple starters of smoked salmon or parma ham.
