"Very good value for money for such a fine gourmet rosé!"

This Grenache (60%), Cinsault (20%) and Syrah (20%) cuvée explodes with complex aromas: red and white fruits combine with floral notes. Over time, these fruity aromas evolve into mellower notes, with hints of spice and stone fruit. From the very first year, it has all its aromas, but has exceptional ageing potential.
