Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence, Provence, Sud de France, FrancePouring a pale pink hue, this is a graceful, finessed old vine syrah/grenache/vermentino rosé, from d'Aix's limestone clay soils, at some altitude. It was whole cluster pressed and gas-protected, with cool ferment in stainless, where it spends 6 months on lees prior to bottling. Pouring a pale, delicate pink hue, this is tight and tart with red currant, wild strawberry, scents of mandarin and ample stony salinity. Acidity is lofted, carrying this through a lingering mineral finish. Very smart wine.Tasted: 03 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:

Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence, Provence, Sud de France, FranceThe pale Provençal pink is an elegant, delicate, graceful rosé made from a classic mix of syrah and grenache. It is whole-cluster-pressed and kept under a blanket of gas to protect its fresh aromas and flavours. It sits here on its lees for six months. The nose and palate is an enting mix of wild red fruits, strawberries, and raspberries with a thin coating of salt and citrus. What a delight to sip. The current supply is almost run out but look for this label next year. Impressive, to say the least.Tasted: 20 November 2022Tasted by: Prices:
