A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of stopping into Vin Sur Vignt . Sebastien Auvet's charming West Village wine bar and bistro really is worth checking out - especially considering he pours about 50 wines by the glass. I took the opportunity to have a flight of roses (seen in the photograph to the left). The Domaine Michel Girard et Fils Sancerre Rose 2012 is made from 100% Pinot Noir, grown on 50 acres of estate vines in the Loire Valley. It sported a beautiful delicate pink color, with crisp notes of red cherry and strawberry, along with more subtle notes of earth and minerals. The Cep d'Or Rose Cotes de Provence 2012 is a blend of Grenache and Cinsault and was refreshing with high-toned aromatics of white flowers, herbs, and delicate red fruit. Finally, the Chateau L'Argentier Rose d'Aramon (from the Languedoc and made from Aramon, an grape indigenous to the region) had aromas of flint and minerals along with strawberry and raspberry and spices.
