Kylie Minogue has a rosé
Yesterday, my friend Fleur visited our editorial office. And it's because Fleur is so lovely, otherwise I would have long scratched the shiny layer off her little eyes out of pure jealousy. Fleur has a lot to be jealous of. For example, her own rosé. And her own vineyard. Her own château, and as if that wasn't bad enough, she is also Brad Pitt's neighbor. Their winery, l’Amaurigue, borders Château Miraval, which belongs to our Brad. Now she has never had the chance to meet the man herself (although her winemaker is the son of Brad's winemaker), but it is delightful to casually drop a ‘How's it going with Brad?’ when you see Fleur.
Anyway. Fleur came to visit with her signature rosé that just won a few awards again and also brought a new sparkling rosé that is already looking at me longingly. She had just been to the wine fair and stood there for a week next to Kylie Minogue, who has launched her own rosé. According to Fleur, Kylie's rosé, aptly named ‘Wines by Kylie Minogue‘, is ‘fine’. She doesn't have her own winery, but buys the rosé from a good house and then sticks her own label on the bottles. Kylie's wine obviously can't compare to Fleur's, but it's nice nonetheless. She had a stand that was impressive (even bigger than that of Whispering Angel, which is a major rosé producer), Kylie was working hard all week, and well, having a Kylie on your boat this summer is of course very good. Although I choose my Fleur, especially for her Grand Cru with the bottle that has a small shell imprint on the bottom of the bottle that I then reuse as a water bottle.

So I have also had the chance to meet Kylie once and this is what she told me.
