Maison Albert Bichot, C’est La Vie, Rose, Vin de Pays, France 2010
C'est La Vie - get on board with the French attitude! The appellation of this blend is Vin de Pays d'Oc, and the region is Languedoc Roussillon. This rose is a Syrah rose.
Hailing from the estate of noted winemaker Albert Bichot, C'est la Vie Syrah Rose is a light, easy-drinking wine that pairs incredibly well with a wide range of entrees. Generous notes of strawberry, cherry and raspberry on the nose and palate are balanced by a satisfying hint of tart blueberry which carries through to the finish. The label is always a hit as it reminds one of a traditional country wine in France. It's modern, hip, and of course French.
