Rosé wine
ROSE WINES
Provence has been making rosés since the Romans and it is this region, its birthplace, that the best and the real rosés are made.
Provence Rosés are always dry. Sweet Rosés have been traditionnally produced in the Loire valley.
Contrarily to some popular beliefs rosé is NOT a mix of red and white wines! It is made fromp red grapes and is therefore a red wine which has achieved the prowess of short macerations in order to keep its pale pink colour whilst retaining elegant and refined aromas.
Rosé wine making is technically quite difficult and it is only during the last two decades that the use of both pellicular macération and temperature-controlled fermentation have enabled us to offer pale rosés with fragrant aromas.
