If you're pining for summer already then start stocking up with this impressive rose from one of Burgundy's finest

Domaine Joseph Roty's rosé has a loyal following amongst customers who have discovered that it is a rather serious wine, at its best with food - not really the stuff for quaffing around a swimming pool. Avery pale pink, its colour belies the rather self-assured style presented on the nose. Bright fruit, berries and cream make a bid for dominance but offer a harmonious whole. The palate, refreshing and upbeat, echoes the aromatics of the nose whilst maintaining a certain serenity and composure, hinting at darker fruit, underlying minerality and the most delicate spice - well worth trying.
