Overview
Passionate about travel and wine, Mathilde Chapoutier explored various wine regions, in France and around the world, for inspiration in creating her own exciting rosé from her prestigious estate in Côtes de Provence. The combination of the altitude and the alkaline limestone soil results in a more refined, crisp wine with higher acidity and freshness. The palate is round and delicious with strawberry, grapefuit and apricot notes and a silky mouthfeel. Bright acidity balances the round texture.
Aging
Aged 5 months in vats and bottled at the end of winter.
Fermentation
Short, cold maceration on the skins followed by direct pressing in an oxygen free environment.
Tasting Notes

Crisp, Fresh, Round, Silky

Apricot, Grapefruit, Strawberry
Aroma
The combination of Grenache (grapefruit), Syrah (sage / herbal notes) and Vermentino (Peach, White Flowers, Citrus) are very well balanced on the nose.
