* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Herbal and peppery, with tart cherry flavors that seem to lack the flesh of the Perrin family's better efforts—the wine is lean and wiry in the mouth, finishing on a cranberry note.

A simple, fruity white best as an easy quaffer before dinner, this wine prominently features notes of tropical fruit and pineapple, with apple and pear flavors in support. Clean and fresh, if a little short on the finish. Imported by Vineyard Brands.

This widely available rosé starts a bit slow, taking some time to show its modest aromas and flavors of melon and berry fruit. But then it charms on the finish, where it seems to grow in intensity, ending crisp and refreshing.

A simple fruity quaff that will drink well with cold roast chicken at lunch, through a hot afternoon by the pool and into a late dinner off the grill. Strawberry and watermelon flavors predominate, with a bit of citrus adding zip to the finish.

This clean, neutral white wine features modest aromas of apples and limes, a plump mouthfeel and a stony, citrusy finish. Try it with fish stew, sometime during the next several months.

Smells really nice, with bubbly Grenache fruit making a strong statement on the nose, but falls off a bit on the palate. Ripe and pleasant, bursting with black cherry fruit, just lacking concentration and length.

The Perrin family, with its long tradition of winemaking, consistently turn out delicious bargain-priced wines from the Côtes du Ventoux. This rosé blends cherries and chocolate with citrus and even touches of minerality and length rare in a $9 wine. Drink now.

The Grenache-Syrah-Cinsault and Mourvèdre grapes in this Rhône blend come together in a tasty core of dry red berry flavors. It's not complex, but it's flavorful with mild earth and spice accents on the fruit. Has just enough structure and tangy tannins to work with food, as well as providing plenty of good quaffing.
