 Also in 1979, Jon Winroth wrote of another memorable tasting, that of a 1799 Lafite-Rothschild in Paris.Another high point was a controversial article on the "rosés" of Provence that appeared in "Lui" in 1979, in which he outspokenly criticized the mediocrity and "laisser-aller" of this wine region which had an immense unused potential for producing good wine.Threatened lawsuits were finally laid to rest, but the Winroths noticed that the following year advertisements for Provence wines were emphasizing the reds and whites, not the rosés.
