Redcurrant, strawberry and chalk on the nose, with a touch of singed orange gaining strength with air. Dusty red fruit and citrus flavors are braced by tangy minerality, which adds lift and cut. Uncompromising in the best way, finishing with excellent clarity and echoes of lemon and orange zest.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tFood pairings:\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThis is a very versatile wine. You can have it on its own in the summer time as an apéritif. But it is also excellent with Hors d'Oeuvres and terrines. It will compliment any white meat dish and poultry. You can also enjoy it with salmon or exotic food (slightly spicy sushi).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tReview:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"word-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px;\"\u003e\"One of our favorite rosés in our 2017 annual rosé review, the Michel Thomas Sancerre is a complete wine. Pale salmon in color with a red cherry skin scent, the wine is full in the mouth with clean red cherry flavors. It has good balancing acidity and a lingering, rich finish.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e- i-winereview.com (July 2017), 92 pts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michel Thomas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948937048111,"sku":"F0EE102000PNS","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/thomassancereroselbl_49bbffe1-6935-4a7a-8c12-0e025f620bb2.jpg?v=1771485453","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/michel-thomas-sancerre-rose-2016","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
