Served chilled, this is great picnic and barbeque wine for the summer. Try also with cold meats, seasonal salads or simply on its own.
Dry, delicate and elegant – classic rosé from Southern France. Delicate spice aromas leading seductively to a soft, vinous and round palate with abundant ripe fruit.
The vineyards are low-lying, no more than 50m above sea level. There are two principal types of terroir: the first is ancient Villafranchian soil, a red-ochre stony terroir of galets roulés (smooth rounded stones). The second is richer, deep silty soil. The yields permitted for AOP (40hl/ha) are half those permitted for Vin de Pays (up to 80hl/ha). This beautiful rosé is all made in the press, no saignée for Jóuselet. A sophisticated blend of Cinsault and Grenache Noir, kept on fine lees to nourish the wines through the winter and spring, the result is a wine of fragrance and ‘delicatesse’.
