Domaine de Villaine is owned by none other than Aubert de Villaine, co-owner of that most illustrious estate, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. The little house Villaine is located in Bouzeron, and offers fine quality for money for those looking for a good value. The 2011 is light on fruit, a notoriously difficult vintage, but it has some charm nevertheless with tart cherry notes, cranberry and rose hips on the palate. The acidity is quite high, and the wine begs for food. A nice cheese plate? Yes. — 11 years ago

For an intensely flavored rosé, here you go. Pink grapefruit, bursting on the palate, citrus zest, crisp and dry to me sipping. A beach house and some light and flaky fish and it's a win. — 12 years ago

Banyan is a label belonging to Hobo Wine Co meant to introduce a line of wines that pair more friendly with Asian cuisine. Gewürtztraminer (spicy Traminer) is a pink grape that makes an aromatic, opulent fruity wine. Expect the Monterey county fruit to provide more texture and ripeness than its Germanic counterparts.

They call it "pink crack" for a reason. It goes down good. My wife has always been obsessed with Mourvèdre and finding a rose this drinkable made it a house favorite. Every vintage is yummy. I would love to fill a swimming pool with it and do refreshing laps every morning. — 11 years ago
