A beautiful light rose color with powerful floral aromas on the nose. |
|
 |
Best served cool, this round, honest rosé pairs best with typical Provençal specialties, such as bourrides with aioli. |
|
 |
Grapes are harvested at night to take advantage of cool temperatures. |
|
 |
Traditional methods are used, with careful attention paid to each parcel. Wine is made using the saignée (bleeding) method. After harvest, complete destemming is followed by a short maceration period at a low temperature (64°F) to develop the aromas and flavors. |
|
 |
The estate features old vines planted in calcareous rock soil. The best parcels are planted at mid-altitude with exceptional sunshine and a warm Provençal climate. |
