Presentation

Presentation
La Vieille Ferme Rosé has everything you would expect from a good rosé wine. Fruit, freshness and a beautiful colour. Ideal as an aperitif or with a meal amongst friends…
The vintage
The 2016 vintage in the Southern Rhone valley is exceptional, both in terms of quality and quantity, thanks to idyllic weather conditions that protected the region from climatic accidents throughout the whole year.
Location
Situated on the slopes of Mont Ventoux, the vineyard benefits from a cooler climate than down in the plain. The grapes mature slowly and maintain a good acidity. The wine is rich, fresh, balanced.
Terroir
Sediment left by the seas of the Tertiary period at the base of the chalky Mont Ventoux. Red Mediterranean soils originating from cretaceous hard chalk, calcareous debris and round stones from old alluvium.
Ageing
Bleeding in stainless steel tanks.
Varietals
Cinsault
Grenache
Syrah

Advice

Serving

Tasting
Pretty pale-pink color, with soft undertones. Fresh and very aromatic nose, this wine has a delicate bouquet with notes of red fruit, flowers and citrus fruit. Nice balance between sweetness and acidity in the mouth. There are notes of fresh fruit, and great length. This 2016 wine is fresh and balanced, a beautiful expression of this beautiful vintage with lots of fruit!
