* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The top rosé from Minuty is 95% Grenache, and shows a richly spiced nose that’s almost musky or feral, balanced by pink grapefruit aromas. It’s longer and finer in the mouth than the Cuvée de l’Oratoire, with more pronounced minerality and crisper acids.

As fresh and crisp as possible, this is a wonderful thirst-quenching rosé. Packed in reinterpretation of the classic Provence rosé skittle bottle, it has delicious fresh acidity, raspberry flavors and an edge of minerality that make this a great food wine.

This had just been bottled, but didn’t seem to be suffering at all, showing exuberent fruit—cherries, peaches and melons—even a hint of banana. Mineral notes provide balance on the finish, along with the slightest touch of bitterness.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
As the AOC regulations don’t permit moncépage wines, this wine is coded with M for Mourvèdre, which accounts for 90% of the blend. Aged in one-third new oak, it boasts smoke, plum and blackberry fruit along with hints of game and cola. There’s lots of flavor intensity but also plenty of tannin, making it a bit firm on the finish right now; try in 2010.
