Rating: Gault Millau 15/20
"A wine with a distinctively southern character; on the nose, a beautifully expressive palette of red fruits and floral nuances. The whole is a delight that doesn’t lack body, with a luscious, fruity finish." (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau). Rhône Paradox rosé offers exceptional fruit, a quality that has become its signature over the years. Born in the southern part of the Costières region, it is expressive, evoking a basket of fresh fruit (apricot, cherry, pear) mingling with notes of white flowers. The palate is rich and lively, literally bursting with small red fruits like wild strawberries and raspberries. A wine that is always balanced and fresh, for immediate enjoyment!

Gault & Millau Wine Guide

Guide des Vins Gault & Millau

Rated estate (2012 guide): 3 stars (Very high-quality production)

About the estate:

“Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still heavily influenced by the cooperative. Deeply attached to the Costières de Nîmes, he made his home at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of wine: Rhône Paradox, highlighting the freshness and purity of the fruit; Compostelle, the result of careful selection from old vines, as well as grapes from the best plots. And finally Armonio, born from a collaboration with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, notably).”
