Pizza demands juicy, fresh wine and time and time again, especially on a warm night in August, I find myself reaching for rosé, preferably from the South of France. The last one of the season just hit my cellar, from a world-class producer of Tuesday nighters, Richard Jaume.
His old vines of Grenache and Syrah are precariously rooted in limestone at some of the highest elevations in the Rhône, perfect for making wildly aromatic, bone-dry Rosé that is simply lights out perfect with pizza of any type. I know first hand, the last visit at chez Jaume included a pretty damn good pizza in an ancient stone oven. We drank rosé. You should too.
The 2019 just hit my cellar, it’s a terrific Tuesday nighter, with a killer nose of blood orange, red berries and English garden roses. In the mouth, the fruit is intense, with sappy raspberry, cherry and tangerine flavors, finishing bone dry and lip-smackingly fresh. Get it into your pizza rotation ASAP!

“The 2019 Oublié is a blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre, Tannat and Petite Sirah with a medium ruby-purple color. The nose offers gregarious mixed berry preserves and accents of potpourri, mint and fragrant earth. The palate offers juicy appeal and powerful fruit with loads of spice and floral perfume, bursts of freshness and firm, pleasantly rustic tannins, finishing very long.” -Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Recently Wolffer Estate has expanded their famous Rose line to now include a Cotes de Provence Rose. For my money, it’s hands down a better bottling – an energetic and super fresh pink wine created from the French staple Rose grapes of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah as opposed to the Long Island version that has a whole lot of varietals mixed in. It’s bright and balanced and the perfect treat for the pool or beach as the weather warms.

The 2022 Hampton Water Rose from the south of France is such an electric wine, people are really going to love it. It’s a lively Rose with tons of personality, with some great minerality, crispness, and bright red fruits. There’s so much energy and tension here as well as a little bit of spice that comes in the end. Everything you’re looking for in a serious Rose.
The just released 2023 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, orange peel and Bing cherry notes. This is as well-balanced as always with terrific fruit flavors of citrus and red berries with racy a high-toned finish.
