2016 Tavel Rosé
Château de Trinquevedel
Since the domaine lies just across the river from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, it makes sense that Grenache is the main grape in Tavel rosé, with a bit of Mourvèdre for color and body. This substantial rosé can easily replace red at your summer table, and if you stash a few bottles—and you should—it will also serve you well at the feasts and gatherings of autumn.

When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:
1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
