Our administrator for World Wine Travel, Camilla of Culinary Cam, asked us to share the sips and nibbles we enjoyed during our Summer Travels.
We recently purchased an RV and have been traveling locally, enjoying time with family and friends.
When packing the camper, I included a bottle of Chevalier de Lafoux Sainte Anne Rosé Cotes De Provence that I had purchased from Total Wine.
Rose is my go-to wine during the summer months. This was my first tasting of this winery in Provence, where Rosé is king. This is a light, fruity wine. Perfect for sipping on its own while enjoying a campfire, or for pairing with salads, chicken, or fish. I am going to buy another bottle to pair with some mildly spiced Thai food. I think it will be an excellent pairing, and at only $13.99 a bottle (available at Total Wine), I can experiment.
I enjoyed this wine with a typical summertime dinner of Grilled Chicken Breast, Cucumber Salad, Sourdough Bread, Macaroni Salad, and Watermelon. It was lovely.
Please stop by and see what the others are enjoying on their Summer Travels......

I am a huge fan of summer Rosés. I don't think I have tried this one you mention, but I will definitely keep an eye out and take it out to the campfire. Thanks and cheers.

DeleteI bet this is a wine my husband would love. He loves his roses in the summer! We are going camping this weekend, for once, the weather looks favorable!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time and don't forget the wine.
DeleteI really want to grab a bottle of this and start a campfire! And 100% agree, there is nothing better than a nice, crisp rosé in the summer.

ReplyDeleteNothing better than a nice rosé for road trips, camping trips and patio trips in the summer!
