2022 Angelique Leon Chinon Rose

From: Chinon, Loire Valley, France Varietal: Cabernet Franc Taste: A rosé with a decidedly orange bent in color and aroma, complete with yellow fruits, white strawberry, salmonberry, Chilean yellow plum, plus more savory hints of tomato leaf and a dusting of white pepper. This vintage is zesty and food-friendly; a bistro rosé for sure!Pairing: Rosés like this one are fantastic as aperitifs, and are as comfortable around seafood as they are vegetables and fresh cheeses. Today, we’re enchanted with & thus recommending something along this line: Caramelized Leek, Spinach, and Goat Cheese Tart Recipe, by Grace Elkus. This recipe yields 6 servings, and will take about an hour to prepare and make. Some other pairings we love with this rosé include dishes like Dungeness crab crudité or endive salads, poisson en papillote, and everything asparagus: Asparagus Soup, Asparagus Quiche, an Asparagus Mimosa, etc. About. The following is an excerpt from Eric Asimov on Chinon, titled Chinon, a Red
