The 2002 Cotes du Rhone rose is about as good as rose can be from this appellation. A vivid, fragrant, light ruby/salmon-colored effort, it offers a glorious smorgasbord of strawberries and framboise in an elegant, light to medium-bodied, dry, refreshing style. Enjoy it over the next 12 months. One of the world’s great winemaking estates, proprietor Christophe Delorme has taken this property to the pinnacle of quality in approximately fifteen years. Domaine de la Mordoree’s white, red, and rose wines are reference points for the southern Rhone Valley.Importer: Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester, VA; tel. (540) 722-9228
