For some folks, rosé season is a-fleeting. For others, any time of year (especially Thanksgiving) is just fine. The 2014 Villa Cailleteau Bergeron Bordeaux Rosé ($13) is one of those pink wines for all seasons. Picked at perfect ripeness, the grapes boast classic red-berry flavors with a hint of herb. The nose is floral and fresh, the mouthfeel clean and focused, the finish surprisingly rich. Besides being a great patio or picnic wine, this is well-suited to most anything off the grill, especially fish and fowl, and of course down the road, for turkey and all the trimmings.
Available at Cork Dork, Richfield (Lyndale Av.), Thomas, Falls, McDonald's and South Lyndale.
