But a bottle of Domaine de Triennes Rosoverseen by the two winemakers who also run those esteemed Burgundy domaines, Aubert de Villaine and Jacques Seysseswill set you back just $16.99 per bottle when you buy a case.

Before you laugh and/or email us: Were not saying that this under-$20 ros is interchangeable with some of the rarest and most exquisite Burgundies. But we are saying that it shows the outrageous attention to detail that both partners are known for, and does it in an archetypal Provenal ros thats an absolute steal. No wonder Triennes is one of our most beloved pink-wine offers each year.

At last, in the summer of 1989, an estate located due east of Aix-en-Provence, in the Var, hit the bullseye for them. The hillside plantings enjoyed perfect southern exposure, and the spot was cooler than Aix yet bathed in Provenal sunshinecrucial elements of terroir that help produce wines with characteristic freshness and elegance.

On hot afternoons, the steady breeze off the Mediterranean takes the bite out of the summer swelter, refreshing the vines. At nearly 1,400 feet in elevation, the temperature plunges when the sun sets. In 2022, cool nights kept the acids firm, buttressing the juiciness of the low-yielding Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, and Merlot vines.

The incredible value of this Domaine de Triennes Ros is no secret among Wine Access members. Stash away at least a few bottlesor, better yet, a caseof this remarkable ros before its gone.
