A beautiful rosé from a lesser-known but exceptionally high-quality appellation. The nose is delicate and pleasantly reveals notes of red fruit; the attack on the palate is clean, with character and a liveliness provided this year by lovely acidity. The fruit notes then fill the mouth, leading to a lovely, very pleasant finish. One of the best rosés from the southwest!

About the estate:
The cooperative, which controls most of the Buzet appellation—approximately 1,950 hectares as of today, planted with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon, Sémillon, etc.—had built a solid reputation in the 1990s. After a few more challenging vintages, quality had dipped, before returning to a high standard once again. This winery’s lineup is worth noting; the wines are monitored on a plot-by-plot basis and exhibit distinct identities, without resorting to showiness.
