Palate: crispness from good acid, peach flavors.
Overall: Provence is the sentinel of rosé wine having grown the category to a market share exceeding that of white wine in its native France.

Typically serve them as quaffing wines (ideal for summer parties) or with fish (this one paired consummately with Copper River salmon), or vegetable soups.
