Growing Conditions
In Provence, the year's generally mild spring and sunny dry summer lead to high quality rosé wines in 2016. While the ongoing drought in the region gave lower yields in our vineyards, the wines remained healthy, leading to greater depth of flavor and concentration on the palate.
Winemaking
All grapes were harvested early maintaining freshness of acidity, and went direct to press - minimal skin contact leading to pale salmon color and subtle grip. The must was fermented cold preserving freshness of floral aromatics, and matured in stainless steel giving vibrant fruit intensity and long crisp finish.
