What a rosé it is!

Gorgeous Tavel dresses in a thousand shades of pink to seduce and captivate the senses. Luminous like no other wine, it inspires the chef, the eater and the eaten.

Tavel wines are only available in rosé... La Vinotheque is the only fine wine Store in the Farmington valley to sale this rosé wine. But what a rosé it is! The great novelist Honoré de Balzac said that it one of the rare rosés that age for the better... The rosé colouring of these wines can be expressed as either salmon or deep ruby pink. The complex nose of summer fruits evolves into smooth notes of pitted fruits and almonds, while the full, rounded mouth unveils a splendid aromatic ensemble supported by hints of spice.

So if you live in Avon or West Hartford make your way to our Farmington store and try this beautiful Tavel that has both richness and freshness, the 2013 Rose offers up plenty of watermelon and candied cherries as well as a dry minerality that comes through on silky, polished palate. Straight-up delicious and with a hard to resist profile, it's well worth the price of admission.  Chateau D' Aqueria Tavel Rose 2013
