Decanter's Platinum - Best in Show: Best Value Rosé - 97 points No Images? Click here Decanter's Platinum Best in Show: Best Value Rosé - 97 points Dear wine lover, Decanter's Platinum - Best in Show: Best Value Rosé - 97 points: the Rimauresq Cotes de Provence Cru Classé Rosé 2016 The Decanter Wine Awards are by far the world's biggest wine tasting and judging event. Two-hundred-and-nineteen expert judges, including 65 Masters of Wine and 20 Master Sommeliers, reward examples of excellence from around the wine world. This year they reviewed and rated more than 17,000 wines - and just 34 received the top accolade of Platinum Best in Show. One of these is our highly popular Rimauresq Cotes de Provence Cru Classé Rosé 2016 - receiving an astonishing 97 points (astonishing because the Decanter wine judges are notoriously severe critics). The Rimauresq was the only Rosé to be awarded a Platinum - Best in Show. The Show tasting note: "Lovely strawberry shortcake and hint of petal aromas; generous palate with depth of flavours - spice to frame the delicate fruit, and a fine cushion of lees to carry to an elegant finish." Now it is one thing for 65 Masters of Wine and 20 Master Sommeliers to judge this as essentially being the world's best Rosé. Happily, many of you World Wine customers are just as shrewd in your judgement, as you have bought numerous cases of the Rimauresq. Inevitably though the Decanter Award will see stocks move quickly, so Stock up as this will sell out soon. Rosé is our fastest-growing wine style - we sell nearly fifty different Rosés. The full range is here, and you may also be interested in our Rosé offer from last month here. Cheers, Sarah Fuller |
