2010 Chateau d'Aqueria, Tavel, France ($19.99 at Nielsen's Market)
This wine had an intensely dark color for a rose'. Lindsay (my girl) and I had this in Carmel with our friend's Mike and DeeAnn and enjoyed it with the sunset and hors d'oeuvres. This was more like that of a light red (think Beaujolais). I don't like rose' that's that darkly colored or that expensive. We liked this, but it wasn't worth the price.
2010 Quinson & Fils, Provence, France ($4.99 at Trader Joe's)
This was lightly colored, simple and easy to quaff. It was dry and fresh although, it did have some nice aromas of watermelon. We sipped this one down at Lover's Point and we realized that you don't need to have a lot of money to have class. I prefer this one over the Tavel and you can buy four bottles for the same price.
