They say that wine is bottled sunshine. Somehow that feels more true in this wine than most. Perhaps this is because Carrel’s vineyards are all planted around the rims of the French Alps in the village of Jongieux so they’re a little bit closer to the sun than most. The air is a little thinner, so no matter how warm it gets during the day, the night dawns cold and fresh, so grapes don’t lose their acidity before harvest. Maybe that’s just what Mondeuse and Gamay grapes do best. For any and all of these reasons, this red-leaning rose is bright and cheerful and everything we could want for an early summer wine. On the nose, gravelly mineral notes come with raspberry, orange and grapefruit. The palate is an explosion of fresh picked cherries, white blossoms, and citrus zest with a saline rim. Mouthwateringly fresh acidity keeps the whole thing bouncing along to a cheerful, crisp finish. A fantastic choice for picnics by a lake with sandwiches, for charcuterie boards, or most dishes that end in “-salad”.
