“What a captivating rosé!”
L'apprentie Sorcière is made from old Carignan vines blended with young Grenache Noir vines. A clear, brilliant wine, its nose is fragrant with red berries, pink grapefruit, and lychee. On the palate, it is round, smooth, and rich, with a spicy, crisp finish. Fresh and perfectly refreshing!

About the estate:
Hervé Bizeul, a winemaker and maverick writer, has little left to prove, as his estate ranks among the elite of Roussillon. Yet this does not stop him from constantly challenging himself, exploring new avenues, innovating, thinking outside the box, and creating new vintages. A prime example is his Pinot Noir, which came out of nowhere and bravely withstands the harsh sun and the Tramontane winds of the Agly Valley. Here, each cuvée displays a personality all its own, sometimes uncompromising, just like its winemaker. From no fewer than seven different terroirs emerges a serious and diverse interpretation of Roussillon. A model of its kind.
