About this winery

Production notes

The Pinot Noir grapes are harvested at night to benefit from the cold Loire temperature. The grapes are gently pressed at a low pressure in a pneumatic press to get our beautiful Rosé color. The juices are fermented in stainless steel tanks during 15 to 20 days at low temperature (14 to 18°C). The Pinot Noir Rosé is bottled in the winter after a few months of aging on fine lees to preserve the aromatics.

Tasting notes

The nose reveals some fresh raspberry flavors followed by a red fruit bouquet. The palate is silky, juicy with an airy freshness. The intense black-currant and red cherry aromas dominate the mid-palate while the long lasting grapefruit flavors nicely compliment the zesty finale. A real Rosé treat! Enjoy it during the apéritif, with a BBQ or some Méditerranean salads.
