Charvin's 2020 Cotes du Rhone Rose contains a splash (10%) of Mourvèdre, but the balance is split between Cinsault (45%) and Grenache (45%). It's a pale salmon hue in the glass, marked by scents of musk, dried spices and lavender, plus more standard notes of peach and melon. Medium-bodied and round on the palate, it maintains a steely core of acidity that lingers on the crisp, mouthwatering finish. It's an intriguing marriage of ripeness and acids that's sure to bring you back for sip after sip.

A lovely pale flamingo pink in color, Charvin's 2017 Cotes du Rhone Rose is a bit confected. Sweet-smelling and sweet-tasting cherries and peaches lead the way, backed by modest wet stone and citrus notes in this medium-bodied rosé. Solid, but not outstanding, it should be consumed during its first year.

Laurent Charvin's 2014 Cotes du Rhone Rose is a forward, deliciously quaffable rosé that sports a light pink/salmon color to go with upfront notes of candied cherries, melon, lavender and Proven?al herbs. Forward, supple and straight-up delicious, it's a bottle that will be quickly emptied at the dinner table.

Light salmon in color and a dry, crisp rose that’s beautifully refreshing, the 2012 Cotes du Rhone Rose (Laurent first made a rose in 2009) is made from a blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre and 10% Bourboulenc that was fermented all in concrete. Melon, honeydew and strawberry all shine here, and it is classically dry on the palate, with solid mid-palate fruit. Buy this beauty by the case and enjoy it over the coming year. 280 cases imported. Drink now-2013. Consistently producing lively, fresh and elegant efforts that never lack for structure or richness, Domain Charvin is run by the soft spoken and generous Laurent Charvin. The winemaking here is very traditional, with some stem inclusion and aging completely in tank. Importer: Weygandt-Metzler; tel. (610) 486-0700

Charvin’s first venture with rose, the 2009 Cotes du Rhone Rose, is a blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Bourboulenc. While light strawberry and cranberry notes fade quickly on the palate, it is a refreshing, dry, crisp, pleasant rose to drink over the next 6 months.
