Love by Léoube Rosé 2025 – Côtes de Provence
As summer brings longer, lighter days, our drinking habits begin to shift – moving outdoors, earlier in the day, and centred around sharing. Tables reappear on terraces and in gardens, lunches stretch into the afternoon, and evenings begin with a chilled glass in hand. At the centre of it all, as ever, is Provence, the region that has come to define the taste, rhythm, and pace of summer, and become the global benchmark for rosé.
Love by Léoube Rosé 2025 boasts a pale, bright hue with rose-orange reflections, revealing an aromatic and intense nose. Round and fresh attack evolving into a light palate with aromas of fresh fruits and citrus. A touch of acidity graces the finish, elegantly extending the persistence of the fruity flavours. £16.50, 12.5% ABV. From Tesco.

Leading the line-up next, is Bélena Pinot Grigio, a bright and balanced white wine recently awarded a silver medal at the Melbourne Royal Wine Awards. Best served chilled, it offers a depth of character not always seen in this grape variety.
Lively flavours of juicy green pear and crisp red apple, lifted by hints of elderflower and white peach, result in a refreshing, crisp acidity. Its gentle character makes it an ideal partner to prawn linguine, delicate Asian dishes, such as pad Thai, or light summer suppers, as the evenings begin to warm.
