Côtes de Provence Wine Pairing with Salmon

October 9, 2018

Today’s tasting may be the most unusual I have done. It is a wine that, if blindfolded when tasted, would not have said “rosé” to me, although it wouldn’t have said red or white. It has no traditional red fruits associated with rosé nor its distinct floral aromas. On the nose, it is briny. It …
