Harvest and Vinification
Harvest started on September 16th going through October 10th. The 2019 season was very dry. But thank our altitude and exposure nord /nord-ouest we keep a lot of freshness in the wine. The different grape varieties developed a very homogenous maturity and we still have a perfect balance between the PH (3.18), total acidity (6.80) and alcohol (12,5%)This wine was produced through direct pressing, destemmed.Certain varieties went through a cold maceration for before being pressed. Cold clarification and natural fermentation. Gravitational work in the cellar as often as possible.

Tasting
Clear pink bouquet, a finely spiced citrus nose, slightly lemony, floral. The palate is taut, white fruits, citrus, hint of fennel … a rosé for every occasion and any meal!
