"A winter rosé worth trying"

Rosé in winter? Absolutely! This rosé has an incredible aromatic richness. Have fun tasting it blind—you might mistake it for a white wine. On the palate, it’s a true concentration of wild strawberries and roses, wrapped in a lovely minerality. This cuvée is perfect for experimenting with food and wine pairings; try it with sushi, red mullet in tomato sauce, or sweet-and-savory dishes... This “saignée” rosé—which involves a few hours of maceration before extracting the lightly colored juice—can be cellared for several years. A unique wine worth discovering!

About the estate:

A true pioneer in the appellation’s return to quality, this estate boasts diverse terroirs that it skillfully utilizes to create blends that strike a balance between finesse and structure.

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated Estate: Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

François Collard is a regular in the Guide, with his wines often ranking very highly. Established in 1994, he began bottling wines from the family vineyards (65 hectares certified organic since 2014) under two labels: Mourgues du Grès, which belonged to the Ursuline Convent of Beaucaire until the Revolution, and La Tour de Béraud, named after a 14th-century watchtower Never short on ideas, the Collards invite visitors to discover all facets of the estate via a marked trail equipped with Bluetooth markers.
