Vanity Fair got foodie Joe Bastianich to sample the 2012 Château Miraval Côtes de Provence rosé – otherwise known as they wine Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie make after crushing grapes.
Bastianich deemed the wine “very, very, very pretty.” Then he took a sip…da, da, dahhhhhh….
“With the nose, it has macerated wild strawberries, confectionary sugars, and strawberry or raspberry PEZ, like the candy. In taste, the varietals it’s made of—grenache, etc.—make it slightly acidic on the palate. Not in a bad way, but it’s definitely real and acidic, and firm. It’s very pretty on the olfactories—rose petals and confectionary sugar—but a little rougher on the palate. But it’s a very serious wine.”
In other words, it tastes like wine! YUMMY
