This delightfully refreshing wine calls to memories of days spent enjoying summer fruit. It exudes scents of melon and tropical fruit, in a bouquet with sweet notes. In this smooth, melt-in-the-mouth vintage, a zing of acidity appears only at the finish, underscoring the firmness and balance of this delightful vintage. This slightly bitter touch shows through as a sign of delicious complexity.

This exotic, indulgent wine conjures up luxurious oriental gardens dripping with peaches, apricots and pomelos.

Once again, the sea surrounding the island protected the vines from repeated attacks of drought and extreme temperatures. The effect of these conditions can be seen in the grapes’ advanced maturity, however, giving extra radiance to the pale pink shades of the Rosé.

Accolades

92 Points – “The 2022 Rose is beautifully textured and expansive, with notable radiant intensity running through a core of red berry and blood orange fruit. Sweet floral and mineral accents bring it all together on the resonant finish. Delicious.” – Antonio Galloni, Vinous

92 Points – “This rosé is a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre and 5 Tibouren a grape which gives purity and primary cherry fruit flavours in future vintages the proportion of Tibouren will increase, with Syrah
decreasing. The 2022 vintage was a fairly hot vintage, and this rosé is deeper in colour than some other Provence rosés. But it’s as fresh as a daisy, with gorgeous cherry, redcurrant and watermelon fruit flavours some warm white peach notes and a faint hint of menthol Supple and medium bodied with a hint of salinity on the finish, this would be delicious served with shellfish, or alone.” – Amy Wislocki, Decanter

91 Points – “A terrific rosé that’s made in a richer, textured style compared to many Côtes de Provence rosés Sporting a lighter salmon color as well as terrific aromatics of orange blossom, wild strawberries, and sappy flowers, it hits the palate with medium bodied richness, a layered, seamless mouthfeel, ample fruit, good acidity, and a lengthy, dry finish It’s beautifully done and a classy rosé that will shine on the dinner table or on its own on a hot summer day.” – Jeb Dunnuck
