LVE or Legend Vineyard Exclusive is a partnership between John Legend (yup, our favorite singer of “Ordinary People”), and Raymond Vineyards (part of the Boisset Collection – Buena Vista, Deloach, JCB, Louis Bouillet, Bridge Valley, etc.).  LVE wine launched in 2015 and currently has a couple Rosés, a sparking rosé, a sparkling Brut Bland de Blancs, a chardonnary, A red blend from Santa Rosa, and a Cabernet Sauvignon.  The LVE Collective is a subscription membership wine club, but I have seen the LVE Rosé at wine bars and even in my local grocery store. 

I recently tried the Côtes de Provence Rosé.  It isn’t awful, but it isn’t amazing either and I think they hype has the bottle incredibly overpriced ($25).  You can get a much better bottle of Provence Rosé at a much cheaper price.  Personally, I would (and have) chose Leoube ($20) and Berne (I just got 6 bottles for $15 each) Rosés over this one and those are much cheaper!
