Arbousser Tavel Rosé 2021 Julie Rouffignac review - WineUncorked: Wine Reviews and Tips

tesco

Tavel rosé is hard to find in UK supermarkets. But Tesco has this French classic for £12 – and it’s a great alternative to all those ultra pale slightly sweet rosés. Tavel tastes like a cross between a light red and a rosé – its cherry red colour gives us a clue! Flavours of juicy raspberry and cherry with a clove spiciness. Serve slightly chilled with salmon or Welsh Rarebit (posh cheese on toast!).
