Type: Rose Country: France Region: Provence Grape Variety: 40% Grenache, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Syrah, 10% Cinsault, 5% Mourvedre Alcohol Percentage: 13%

Viticulture: High Environmental Value (Sustainable)

Climate: Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence lies west along the Mediterranean coast from the Côtes de Provence appellation. The sunny, dry, Mediterranean climate ensures ripe, fruit-driven wines. Terroir: Vineyards are located at an altitude of 400 metres, in the heart of an ancient volcanic crater. Ageing: The grapes were pressed and fermented in the same way as a white wine (rather than using the "saignée" method of drawing off part of a red wine early in the fermentation). This minimised the extraction of harsh phenolics, and has led to a more delicate style of rosé with a fine textured finish.

Color: Brilliantly clear salmon pink Nose: Abound with redcurrant and wild strawberry perfumes that develop into juicy white peach and pear notes Palate: On the palate, fresh acidity is balanced beautifully with the alchohol, giving an elegant mouthfeel and refreshing length
