About the wine:
No fewer than six grape varieties (including 25% white, clairette and bourboulenc) go into this intense, brilliant rosé de saignée, with raspberry highlights. The elegant nose expresses ripe red fruit, with a touch of amyl. Ample and suave on the attack, rich and aromatic, the palate reveals beautiful morello cherry notes enhanced by spices on the finish.
About the domain :
In 1919, Jean Olivier acquired the former estate of the Counts of Aqueria, commissioned by an 18th-century château and adorned with a French-style park. His son-in-law Paul de Bez completely restructured the vineyard: today, 64 ha in a single block, managed since 1984 by his grandsons Vincent and Bruno, now joined by Raphaël, the fourth generation. A sure bet for lirac and tavel.

Estate rated 3*Stars (very good production)
About the domain :
Château d'Aqueria dates back to the 16th century. In 1920, it was acquired by Jean Olivier, who gave it its letters of nobility. Today, Vincent and Bruno de Bez look after the land of their childhood - no less than 66 hectares. Apart from Tavel, a renowned gourmet rosé, the rest of the production in the Lirac appellation (both red and white) is often interesting.
