Rameau D'or Golden Bough Provence Rose 750ml

This Provence has good depth of flavour, richness and the finish has harmony and persistence. Bursting with delicate aromas of wild strawberries and delicate spicy notes reminiscent of rose petal. On the palate, the wine shows immediate soft berry-fruit flavours that are immediately appealing. It suits apéritif drinking, but is also a superb accompaniment to grilled seafood, creamy risotto and pasta dishes. A crisp, dry finish with exceptional length rounds off this wine. An outstanding southern French rosé.

This wine was crafted from vineyards located in the Var department, in the heart of the Côte de Provence. Vines are located on sunny slopes. Soil and sub-soil are composed of limestone from the Trias and the Jurassic period, with some clay-limestone variation. Mediterranean, with warm sunny days and little rain fall during the growing season. Here, the grapevines can expect about 2,800 hours of sun each year! The wind is an integral part of the climate, cooling down the vines an protecting them from humidity-related diseases. The sunshine allows the grapes to reach an optimum level of maturity, while the cooler nights preserve freshness, acidity and enhance the aromatic potential of the varietals.
