Growing Conditions

After a very dry winter and an early start to spring, most of France experienced devastating frosts towards the end of April. Our part of the Roussillon was spared disastrous weather although producers only a few miles away were badly affected. There was a little rainfall over the warm summer which helped create balanced and fresh wines.

Nose

Aromas of citrus fruit and white peach, with a hint of redcurrants and strawberries

Palate

Bone dry and very refreshing, with crisp, mouthwatering freshness, and charming summer pudding red fruit flavours.

Appearance

An extremely delicate pale pink.

Food Pairing

Delicious with a salade nicoise, or a chicken salad, and the taste will transport you to the sunshine and stunning landscape of the South of France.

Aging

Our wine is released young, and is best consumed within a year of bottling.

Harvest

The 2017 harvest was a little earlier than normal, and we harvested plentiful grapes in good condition. The grapes for the rosé were picked in early September

Bottling

Bottled in early April.
