The Wine Buff Selection Cuvee Coco Rosé 2024

Cuvée Coco is The Wine Buff’s own rosé — a Bordeaux blend crafted exclusively for us and named with a nod to the spirit of easy, sun-drenched drinking. Made from Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards in Bordeaux, this is a rosé that reflects our taste: dry, fresh, and genuinely food-friendly, without any of the sweetness or artificiality that plagues lesser rosés.

About This Wine

A Bordeaux rosé in the classic dry style, Cuvée Coco is built for the table as much as the terrace. The Merlot brings soft red fruit and roundness, the Cabernet Franc adds freshness and a subtle herbal lift, and the Malbec contributes colour and depth. The result is a rosé with real character — versatile, approachable, and made to be enjoyed now.

Tasting Notes

Colour: Pale salmon pink with a delicate blush hue.
Nose: Fresh and inviting with aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and a subtle floral note — clean and expressive.
Palate: Dry and refreshing with soft red fruit, a gentle herbal character, and lively natural acidity. Light-bodied and easy-drinking with good balance.
Finish: Clean and crisp with a pleasantly dry, refreshing close.

Food Pairing

A wonderfully versatile rosé — excellent with a cheese plate, shellfish, tomato-based dishes, or a summer salad. Also great as an aperitif or alongside light pasta, grilled fish, or charcuterie. Serve well chilled.
