This is a fine example of Provence rose, at a great price. If you are a fan of Provence rose, as all right-thinking people are, then this is for you. Chill it, but allow it a little time after it comes out of the fridge, to allow the subtlety of the flavour to express itself. I would pour this out as an aperitif, or serve it with lighter foods, or lightly spiced snacks (nuts, bhajis etc).
