The Perrin family got their start in wine by acquiring Château Beaucastel, an important producer in the Rhône Valley. In 1950 they began farming their vineyards organically. In 1974 they converted to biodynamic practices. This delicious rosé is one of many wines they produce, but it is clear that they give it their special attention. It is a pretty pink wine made with a blend of Cinsault, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. It has juicy flavors of fresh cherry, strawberry and raspberry animated by lively acidity. Serve it as an apéritif or at brunch.
