Oh là là this is the epitome of relaxed Riviera chic! A light yet juicy Rosé with tangerine character and hints of exotic fruits. Serve chilled then close your eyes and dream of being on the Côte d’Azur. Elegant Rosé wine from the south of France is having quite the moment (and a price tag to match!) however those in the know, such as our Master of Wine, have a little secret; Rosé IGP Mediterranée is produced in a small area within the Côte d’Azur It has the same trademark pale, nearly orange colour and crisp refreshing style as the best Rosé wines. So despite having a much more difficult to pronounce name, this hidden gem is every bit as enjoyable as its très chic cousin.
Oh, and what's in a name? A Bowl Grabber?!? That's someone who holds their glass by the bowl, not the stem. A faux pas I hear you say?!? Yes indeed; because we're for people who love enjoying great wine not endlessly discussing it!

Serving Suggestions
In the south of France Rose is often served on a hot day with ice cubes to ensure the wine temperature is exceptionally fresh. It’s even called a “Piscine” like a swimming pool as the ice cube bobs around in your glass. Feel free to order a “Rose piscine” on your next trip to Provence!

Vinification Details
Everything is done when making this wine to enhance the clean refreshing wine style. Speed and a considered hand are the best tools to make an appealing rose wine. Grapes are picked in the cool of night to preserve the fresh flavours and picked as quickly as possible.
Colour and flavours are gently extracted so as not to get too much of either, the focus is on elegance and balance. The red grapes; Grenache and Syrah remain in contact with the juice only briefly then being pressed incredibly gently and only the best bits of the juice that runs off at pressing are kept so that the wine just right balance. Some white grape varieties like the indigenous and admired variety Rolle are even added to bring extra floral flavours and some texture.
Fermentation is done in immaculately clean stainless steel tanks with temperature control to retain as much of the bright fruit flavours. Once the wine has finished fermenting the wine is settled, cleaned up and made ready for bottling. These wines are as simple to make as winemaking goes - No oak is added it’s all about getting a rose wine made with the maximum freshness.
