($13, Louis Dressner Selections): Château d’Oupia, one of the most reliable producers in the Languedoc, has fashioned an engaging rosé from the usual Mediterranean blend of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault.  A deeper color than most rosé, it delivers more spice and character than you’d expect along with bright fresh acidity that lends refreshing verve.  It has real body and depth, both often lacking in rosé.  It’s a good choice for summertime fare with enough substance to stand up to robust seafood.
