Not us! (Well me in particular).
This is a very nice, crisp, and lively Rose. It has a very nice lingering after finish.
We paired it with baked prawns and scallops, and of course, our usual couscous. An orange salada round out the main course.
Remember this one for the summer, when you want to just sit out on the deck or patio and relax.
