BIJOU
Rosé Le Chic
2024
About this winery
Bijou first began in Cabrières, a tiny and idyllic region in the Languedoc-Roussillon just 30km north from the Mediterranean. This charming little village is dominated by the Pic de Vissou, an extinct volcano that provides our vineyards with very unique soil types. They have since expanded production into Provence and elsewhere. The winery's focus has always been to make truly authentic wines that are delicious, elegant and reflect the local terroir on which the grapes are grown. Thanks to...

Production notes
The Grenache grapes are harvested early in the morning to retain maximum freshness. These are quickly de-stemmed and direct pressed (pneumatic press) to gently extract the colour. The juice then undergoes a cool fermentation (12-14°C) which lasts just under three weeks. Although this is a 100% Grenache rosé, each Grenache plot is vini ed separately and then carefully blended together.
Tasting notes
The flavour profile focuses on the ripe red fruits such as wild strawberry and redcurrant with subtle notes of cherry blossom. Our rosé is extremely pale, dry, and has a well structured, round body. A truly delicious, easy drinking summer rosé. Delicious paired with shellfish and Mediterranean salads.
