Summer is fast approaching in South Florida so it is time to bring out the rosé! Today we decided to open one of our favorite rose! A 2012 Lafon-Roset. This rosé is made by the 4th Grand Cru, Chateau Lafon-Rochet which makes amazing red wines. The sad thing is that 2013 is their last vintage as they will not be making anymore rosé. Although this particular rose is hard to find in the US, we were able to locate their 2012 vintage and bought a few bottles for the summer. Here we go!
