I had never had a Lebanese wine, until yesterday!
About a month ago, with my favorite wine shop still closed to indoor shopping, I had the owners put together a six pack of summer sipping whites and rosés. Beyond a general description of what I like, I let them choose for me – I’ve done this several times and have always been pleased with the results. With curbside pickup, it was a breeze to just pull up and have them load my purchases into my car!
The 2017 Massaya Rosé is 100% Cinsault, hand picked from vines that are on average 30 years old. It is stainless-steel aged and bottled after 8 months. This wine is a beautiful light strawberry color, with flavors of ripe berries. It is dry with a hint of light spice and just a touch of sweetness. It was great to enjoy it on the deck on a hot summer day!
It made me happy to try something new!
What a wonderful service! I’ll bet the person in the wine shop enjoyed choosing the wine for you.
I think they do enjoy that! It gives me a chance to try new things and break out of my shell!

hugs!
Right back at you. ❤️
