Fresh off a huge feature in The Wall Street Journal in which they were crowned as the top Prosecco Rose in a lineup of 14, I suspect what was once our little secret will explode. James Suckling also finally got around to tasting it and gave it 91 points. I’d rate it even higher. The 2020 Bisol Jeio Brut Prosecco Rosé is remarkable, and simply put, mouth-wateringly delicious. Inviting aromas of flowers and wild strawberries, with a complex mouthfeel that sings with citrus fruits and creaminess from the tiny crisp bubbles.

“Light orange-pink. Mineral accented red berry and citrus fruit aromas are complemented by subtle floral and botanical herbal accents. Juicy and animated on the palate, offering fresh cherry, raspberry and blood orange flavors that deepen with air and take on a spicy nuance. The mineral and floral notes repeat on the lingering finish, which echoes the citrus note. ” – Josh Raynolds
From the famous family behind Peyrassol, the ‘La Croix’ Rose is an extremely quaffable Rose that’s equally well-suited for the pool deck as well as the dinner table. It’s so inviting with aromas of peach, apricots and wild flowers. On the palate, nothing but the juiciness of citrus, honeysuckle, melon and wild berries. It’s a crisp, refreshing Rose that is bone dry with a hint of salinity and minerality on the close. An absolute treat in a glass.
The newly released 2021 Clos Julien Rose of Pinot Noir is super lively and aromatic. It opens up to notes of high-toned red berry and flowers just fly from the glass and pick up a slight savory accent as the wine opens up. Juicy and fresh on the palate, offering wild strawberry and citrus rind flavors that deepen and spread out on the back half. A long, focused and bone-dry finish showcase amazing energy for what is sure to be a new happy hour go-to and Tuesday night Hall of Famer.
Reverdy Ducroux is currently on their 14th generation of Ducroux winemakers operating with parcels right near the town of Verdigny. It’s incredibly prime real estate with rolling hilltops chalk full of rock Kimmeridigian limestone soils, giving a complexity and mineral component to the wines that most others can’t replicate. It’s super pure, with bright citrus notes, a round fleshy mouthfeel, cherry, raspberry and lemon flavors with tremendous balance and a fantastic minerally finish.
The newly released Crochet Sancerre Rosé is drawn from the high elevations of Janine and Teddy Crochet’s Pinot Noir vines in the village of Bué. The conditions are perfect for crisp, delicious Sancerre Rosé. Salmon-pink in color with a pretty nose featuring aromas of roses and cherry fruits. This is as well balanced as always with terrific fruit flavors of citrus and red berries with racy a high-toned finish.
If you’re looking for one of my most sincere recommendations of the year, heed this: this is the Rose to have of all the ones I’ve tried so far. The newly released 2021 Effet Papillon Rose is off the charts. Made 100% from Grenache (as many of the best Southern French Roses are, this is salmon in color. It boasts aromas of bright red and stone fruits, orange rinds and a hint of lemon zest. It’s incredibly smooth and dry, making it a great food wine– but this Rose is serious with depth and complexity, making it worthy of enjoying on its own.
The Rosa di Ceparano 2021 is a racy blend made up of 60% Sangiovese and 40% Syrah vinified separately but both in stainless steal. Vinifying separately gives this wine a lot of flair and personality with inviting notes of fresh flowers, cherries, white peach and wild strawberries On the palate the wine it’s a little bit savory, with a solid core of red berry flavors with hints of citrus and even a little shot of spice and nutmeg that flashes. It’s a vibrant Rose that can completely hold its own with food.

Delicate and balanced.” It’s just a really, really solid wine. Beautiful display of fresh red and citrus fruits with great tension, strong acid and a beautiful mineral cut on the finish. Everything you want in a summer Rose.

Poggio Al Sole is firmly in the elite wineries in all of Chianti. Their Chianti Classicos are consistently amazing and their work with Sangiovese has helped the entire region rise to incredible new heights. One of the wines that helps propel their status is the Primavera, a Rosato with far more weight, balance, and savory notes than most any Rose you’re likely to try.
