Tasting: Dom de Mirail

  • Name: Dom de Mirail Cabernet / Merlot Rose
  • Variety: Cabernet and Merlot
  • Region: Cotes de Gascogne
  • Country: France
  • Year: 2011
  • Price: $5.95
My Review: This wine had a crisp smell and tastes like aquafina bottled water with a light candy taste. There was a hint of strawberry at the finish. 

Shop Review: There is a fresh, crisp character to this light rose.  It is eye-watering in its refreshing character, with balancing acidity, smoothing out the edges with a touch of caramel.

I did not have this wine with food, but I would pair it with a light lemon cake.
