When every single wine they make is superb, you’ve just got to stock them. As good as all their other styles, this Rose is a blend of 80% of the “Tradition” white blend and 20% red wine from the hills around Rilly La Montagne. Did you know that Champagne is the only wine in France allowed to blend white and red wines to make a Rose’ All the rest must be made entirely from red grapes.
Compares more than favourably to the biggest seller in the UK, Laurent Perrier Rose, but at about half the price, so go no further…
You must try this.

Anarkos Rosso di Puglia
The label is attention-seeking, as is the bright red plastic cork (not my favourite closure, I must admit, but the wine insisted I buy it! The wine has attitude and is a provocative one, railing against the plight of the region (see their website). The region reminds me of the Languedoc in France – loads of rubbish wines but increasing numbers of fanatics making really top wines as they should be made. This was one of my favourite winery visits af the last few years. The wine is made from a blend of the local varieties Primitivo, Negro Amaro and Malvasia Nera and should be consumed in conspiratorial bars in the south of Italy with huge helpings of pasta.
Previous vintages recommended; Recommended in The Daily Telegraph: “another one of Mark Hughes’ brilliant finds. Absolutely delicious blend of Primitivo, Negro Amaro and Malvasia. Lush and plush like velvet, also juicy, scented, intense, rich brimming with the smell of violets, deep purple plums and bitter cherries. Such a joy!
Recommended by Oz Clarke as one of his 250 best wines of 2012: “an excellent example of how southern Italian reds are starting to express their own fabulous originality. It’s bulging with youth and it’s soft, yet tempered by a nice edgy bitterness.”

Beat Krug in Blind tasting!
Blend : 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir from the terroir of Rilly la Montagne, 1er cru.
The year : 80% of the SELECTION comes from the 2007 harvest with 20% reserve wine from 2006. 5 years bottle ageing on lees.
Recommended by Jancis Robinson in The Financial Times November 2010: “A substantial wine…very direct, quite complex, confident attack. Tight bead. Zesty and very fresh.”
Recommended in Oz Clarke’s 2010 250 Best Wines; “This has a full, rollicking, jolly quality to it, hedonism to the fore, a big smile on your face, optimism in your eyes, and all the typical champagne flavours a bit exaggerated…..”
Yet another recommendation, this time Bob Tyrer in the Sunday Times December 2010: “excellent value, fully matured in bottle.”
Also recommended in The Times 14th March 2009.
