Let yourself be carried away by this elegant and delicate cuvée, with an aromatic profile centered on citrus fruits (pomelo, kumquat) and a subtle hint of agastache flower. The rosé is lively and crisp on the palate at first, then becomes enveloping, filling the entire palate to reveal its full character. The finish ends with a light, fruity note.

About the estate:
Sophie and Thibaud Bardi de Fourtou took over this historic estate in Faugères in 2017. The wines we tasted for this edition are the last vestiges of the transition from Jean-Michel Alquier to the new owners. The couple’s goal? To preserve the estate’s signature style, whose vineyards are dominated by old Syrah vines from massal selections (among the first planted in Languedoc in the 1960s by Jean-Michel Alquier’s father, Gilbert), complemented by Mourvèdre and Grenache. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this new chapter.
