3 Rosés for Spring: Provence vs Chile vs Tavel | Sell Wine to Jo1

Joi Sanders hosts Sell Wine to Joi in Boerne from the Richter Studio with longtime friend and wine mentor Krista Bryant of importer Co-Brand to taste three spring-ready rosés in different styles:

• X Rosé from Provence (Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah; screw cap; stainless and concrete; very dry and fresh),
• Montes Cherub Rosé from Chile’s Colchagua Valley (2025 vintage; Syrah-forward with Grenache and Cinsault; pronounced aromatics; angel label story and winery details),
• and Château d’Aqueria Tavel Rosé from the Southern Rhône (2024; cork; darker, more structured, age-worthy, and food-friendly).

They discuss how rosé is made from red grapes with limited skin contact, why screw caps can preserve freshness, misconceptions about sweet rosé, and suggested pairings ranging from salads and tuna nachos to grilled mahi, spicy dishes, and even lamb.

Joi Sanders hosts “Sell Wine to Joi” in Boerne, Texas featuring Silouan Bradford from St. Tryphon Vineyards.

They taste three wines: the 2023 barrel-fermented Albarino Cuvée Clarence (named for Sil’s late father), the 2021 Triptych red blend (Merlot, Mourvèdre, and Tannat), and a 2021 100% Cabernet Franc selected by Texas Monthly as one of the Top 12 Texas wines.

Sil explains differences between new and neutral oak, partial malolactic fermentation, St. Tryphon’s European-leaning minimal-intervention approach, and wild fermentation on red wines, plus the winery’s commitment to 100% Texas fruit. They discuss flavor notes, food pairings, and the origin of the St. Tryphon name, and share directions to the tasting room in Sisterdale.
