Château d’Esclans 2010 Garrus Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- $90
This delicious wine offers subtle barrel nuances, with ripe plum and strawberry fruits. Along with this is a stylish crispness, just touched by spice and toast. This is a serious wine, intended for food.

Château d’Esclans 2008 Garrus Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Cellar Selection
- $90
The top rosé from Sacha Lichine’s Esclans estate, this is wood aged and the flavors of wood are apparent, if subtle. The wine has a great smooth texture, the fruit well integrated, showing richness as well as elegance. Not classic Provence, but certainly impressive.

Domaine Gavoty 2009 Cuvée Clarendon Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Editors' Choice
- $22
The top wine from Gavoty, this is impressive. It has a fine structure, enveloped by rich fruits, soft apple skins and red cherry tannins and a tight layer of acidity. It could age for a year.

Château d’Esclans 2009 Garrus Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- $90
The wood-aged Garrus seems a contradiction in terms when described as a Provence rosé. But taste it and it makes complete sense with its rich fruits, only the slightest hint of toast and sweet crushed strawberry flavors. It is rounded, smooth, impressive.

Château les Valentines 2006 Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
A wonderful fruit salad of grapes goes into this deliciously, freshly impressive rosé. The red fruits and pink grapefruit burst in the mouth, and the freshness delivers a crisp, delicate aftertaste.

Domaine Sorin 2006 Terra Amata Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
Luc Sorin, from Chablis, arrived in Provence in 1995, buying vines in Bandol and Côtes de Provence. He seems to have kept a northern freshness in this rosé, a crisp, pink grapefruit and cranberry juice flavored wine, with great, refreshing acidity.

Domaine Saint-André de Figuière 2007 Réserve Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- $27
This full-bodied, richly textured rosé is wonderfully aromatic and floral, with dried spices, plums and cherries all mingling on the nose. Made from 80% Mourvèdre, it behaves almost like a good red wine, but with extra zest and freshness. You could sip it on its own, with white meats or even burgers or steaks.

Château Sainte Roseline 2009 Cuvée Prieure Rosé (Côtes de Provence)
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive
A blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre, aged in wood, which gives a rich texture, maybe just a hint of toast, but more a broad and ripe character. Ripe peach and strawberry flavors add to this delicious wine.
