"A gourmet rosé that's as tasty as they come!

Rosé d'Equinoxe by Yannick Amirault exudes a fresh, complex bouquet of floral aromas, white fruits and hints of blood orange. The palate is taut and energetic, juicy and fresh, with a long, delicate finish. Luscious in its youth, it is capable of maturing over the years.

Domaine rated (guide 2026) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the domain :

Benoît joined the Bourgueil family domaine in 2003 to continue the family adventure initiated by his father Yannick in 1997. The vineyards are divided between Bourgueil (two-thirds) and the neighboring Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation. You can sense the winemakers' perfectionism and their desire to restore the expression of terroirs through very silky, civilized Cabernet Francs that still retain their bright fruit. The estate has been certified organic since 2009, and each year the wines gain in purity thanks to increasingly accurate vinification (truncated wooden vats, stoneware barrels and jars). The 2022 and 2023 delight us with their frank, clean expression and finesse.
