Wine description
This exceptional rosé was born on this particular terroir, where schist rests on limestone, bringing both power and minerality to this wine. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand in 10 kg crates, which spend a night in cold storage before being pressed the following day, thus preserving their aromatic purity. This latest vintage, despite its youth, reveals remarkable complexity and will set the standard for decades to come. It is characterized by notes of red fruit, with hints of blackcurrant, exotic fruit and pineapple, as well as sensational minerality and freshness. The length and aromatics of the nose continue on the palate, with a silky, full-bodied wine that bounces off the palate.
