Juillet 2022 (Millésime 2021)

The Eminence, undoubtedly a link to the old Papal summer home, is a 60/35/5 mix of grenache/cinsault/rolle grown over calcareous clay and limestone, some inland, some on the coast. The fruit is all direct dressed, hence the barely there colour, and cold settled for 12 days before fermenting. 30 percent of grenache is fermented in French oak for more texture and complexity. I love the subtle colour and raspberry infused with a zesty lemon undercurrent from the rolle (vermentino). Spice and vanilla make for a perfect rendition of rosé with style. A wonderful statement for Coteaux de Beziers fruit and a true gastronomic wine.
