Rosé wine values tasted in 2009

The selected French bottlings have given me much pleasure for the price. I have purchased them again for personal consumption. I would consider doing so even with a 50 percent mark-up. (My criteria are explained here.)

The below wines were tasted in France, in 2009 (between April and December).
 

 Vin de pays des maures - Piqueroque - (5l box wine) - Rosé

NV - USD 7.8 - no trouble but no interest, ressembles the 2005 vintage - flower on the nose - light on its feet, a touch stiff, starfruit, fresh

 Vin de pays du var - Domaine de Brigue - (rosé)

2008 - USD 10 - typical - iris - round, dense and fresh
