Hi, and welcome to the wine board. This is a Provincial rose that is of larger production and pretty widely available. It's likely made from a blend of Grenache and Cinsault. It's supposedly a pretty reliable wine in quality, but not anything remarkable -- just a nice summer wine for back patio drinking, and it pairs pretty well with most "backyard summer foods." It generally runs around $15 retail. I've not had this one, but I've tried a rose from them called "Prestige," which I enjoyed. Hope this helps. Happy drinking!
