winemaker's notes:

Blend: 40% Syrah, 40% Grenache Noir and 20% Mourvèdre

With a brilliant violet tint, the 2006 Domaine de Nizas Rosé reveals an expressive bouquet mixing red berry fruits, marshmallow notes and minerality. On the palate, the aging on the lees brings a fuller mouth feel that balances the dryness. This cuvée is a refreshingly crisp wine that embodies the Domaine's style of finesse, elegance and complexity.

This powerful and elegant Mediterranean wine will be the ideal partner to a lamb tajin with candied grapes and almonds or braised duck with licorice sauce.

I would buy this wine again

This wine is one of the most beautiful colors you can imagine, and it's taste is unexpectedly complex and fun. It is a great wine for socializing, and would be a wine that both newcomers and wine lovers enjoy. It is also a great value!

A Customer - Los Angeles, CA
Very interesting and unexpectedly complex for a rose. "zippy" enough to almost taste carbonated

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
