Over 300 years ago, Jean Clock of Holland was recognized by King Louis XIV for his outstanding wines produced from his vineyards in Bordeaux. Generations later and half a country away, Jean-Baptiste de Clock runs the estate just off the Southern coast where he matches the varieties he plants to the multiple soil types and microclimates his vineyards span, including a bed of fossilized dinosaur eggs. The rosé, made entirely from Syrah, has a delicate nose of ripe strawberry, and a palate full of cherry blossom that’s light on its feet and flaunts the color of a fine Bandol at a fraction of the price. It’s refreshingly bright, lively, and perfect for Summer sipping.
