Winemaking notes
The harvest starts in the early morning to preserve primary aromas and the grapes were destemmed and crushed. Following a direct press (no skin maceration), the juice is fermented at low temperature 15-16°C(59/61°F), again to favour freshness and aromatics. Each variety is vinified separately and blended in December with bottling taking place end of January. Vegan friendly.
Viticultural notes
This Côtes du Rhône rosé is a blend of black Grenache and Syrah. The grapes are sourced from clay and particularly limestone vineyards in the Vaucluse and Gard regions of the Valley.
Tasting notes
This fresh, well-balanced wine offers floral notes on the nose with grenadine and red cherry. Lively mouthfeel, both fresh and ample with a rich, spicy finish.
Pairing notes
Best served between 10° and 12° C (60° to 65°F) on its own or with fish in sauce, melon, Mediterranean cuisine such as paella, cod brandade, barbecue and summer lunch. Perfect as well with most Asian dishes.
