EDITOR’S RATING

Light, juicy and fruity, Val de Loire is the epitome of Summer.

8.3

Our next selection is from France by winemakers Maison Morat. Produced in the Fiefs Vendeen region, Val de Loire Rose’s varieties are Pinot Noir, Gamay Noir, Negrette, and Cabernet Franc, with suggested pairings being anything of the tomato-based dish variety. Val de Loire is a delicious option. There is a slight bitterness apparent on the first sip, but it is light, juicy and very fruity. It gets better with each glass and works well with the pairing suggestions. Overall, this is a very good bottle of Rose.
