Torres Vina Sol De Casta, Gerard Bertrand Côte des Roses, Coté Mas Sud de France


I am very happy to say that one shop in the region  where I live still has the Torres Vina Sol De Casta Rose (2016) which is very drinkdownable. Equally, a Grenache Blanc is very hard to find probably anywhere in Oz, let alone the Northern Rivers. There is the fab Gerard Bertrand Côte des Roses; there used to be a Fontanet Pays d'Oc Les Terrasses white (Grenache Blanc, Colombard and Sav Blanc), and there still is the Coté Mas Sud de France in a mixture of Grenache Blanc, Vermentino, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, which is not as great as the Torres. And yes, so, along with the Rose, there is also Vina Sol white of Grenache Blanc and Paradella. Grenache Blanc comes primarily from Languedoc-Roussillon! I could live on this grape, second, or first, only to Arneis ... or Pinot Blanc ... or Vermentino or Viognier or Gargenega or Marsanne ... 😊
