92/100
Bettane & Desseauve
"A gourmet vintage!"
This gourmet rosé is made primarily from Grenache with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose is refined, floral, elegant, and complex, with notes of orange blossom, dragon fruit, mango, and crushed strawberries. The palate is smooth and rich, with delicate flavors of strawberry, grapefruit, peach, a hint of spice, mango, and lime, all supported by a fresh, crisp structure. Pair with Thai cuisine or a tagine.

About the estate:
Carpe Diem, the famous Latin phrase, means “Seize the day without worrying about tomorrow.” A motto taken to heart by Albéric Philippon, who took over the estate in 2013. Located on the clay-limestone soils of Cotignac, the estate now spans 30 hectares. Visitors to the region can find the winemaker and his wines every Tuesday at the Cotignac market.
