Smashingly Good Coteaux Varois en Provence: Domaine de Cala

90*
Domaine de Cala 2020 Rosé Coteaux Varois en Provence 13% 
Pretty and minerally with strawberry accents and a full throttle bouquet of tree blooms and peonies, this is moreish rosé for sure. This is the most impressive Domaine de Cala I have tasted, save its Prestige release in 2018. This is finely balanced with vivid acidity contrasting nicely hearty fruit. The solid finish leaves more of a fruit than mineral impression - surprising for cooler climate (relative to the Provence appellations) Coteaux Varois wine. This will definitely be on my shopping list for the summer! This is 46% Grenache, 41% Cinsault, 10.5% Rolle and 2.5% Syrah.
