An intense rosé typical of Côtes du Rhône.
The vintage
The 2014 vintage is unexpected for the region. A mild and wet winter, a hot and dry spring and temperate and humid summer characterizes this vintage. An atypical year, a winemaker’s vintage. Bud-break took place very early and flowering was carried out in ideal conditions and fruit set was excellent, especially on Grenache. However, work in the vineyards and constant monitoring were necessary all the way through to harvest. The months of July and August were humid favouring growth. The slow maturation of the red grapes and long vinifications offered aromatic wines with freshness and finesse. The Syrah is gorgeous and Grenache is fruity and balanced.

Reviews
"This plump, dry rosé features hints of wet stone, strawberry and barely ripe melon. It's vibrant, refreshing and ideal thirst-quencher for the warm months ahead."
"With juicy strawberry avors and black current leaf fragrance, this strikes a ne balance between sweet and savory. It’s a fresh, full- avored match for merguez sandwich."
