A Rosé that can be enjoyed throughout the year, with or without food, perfect for alfresco picnics, would work well with BBQ chicken kebabs or veal sausages eaten outdoors alternatively all manner of Chinese food, Sushi or sashimi, smoked salmon with sour-cream blinis, or for the more adventurous beef Carpaccio with shaved parmesan, onion and rocket. Oh yes, and a perfect match for Pizza.

Year in year out Château Grès Saint Paul produce a succession of great wines of true value, which if tasted blind amongst some of the better known wines of the Rhône selling at four and five times the price they would be in the top selection from virtually every vintage.
