Le « Grand Rosé » AOP Côtes de Provence
Varieties: Different depending on the vintage. 
AOP Côtes de Provence Vinification: Grapes undergo destemming, followed by an extended maceration and pressing in a 9-hL capacity press. Cold settling precedes alcoholic fermentation, partially in tanks and conical trunks.
Ageing: Wine matures on fine lees for 8-12 months, contingent on vintage, in 300-400L Bordeaux Demptos oak barrels and 600L French oak half-muids. Select vintages age in French oval foudres with initial frequent stirring. Malolactic fermentation is excluded.

2019
A very generous and powerful vintage with roundness and fruit.
The blend includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, and Grenache.
The nose is complex with notes of orange blossom, sweet spices such as coriander and clove, and a touch of green pepper. The palate is fresh, acidic, and slightly iodized, with a touch of bitterness that prolongs the aromas of citrus zest, orange, and bergamot. The wine has a round texture and a silky, slightly honeyed almond paste with a final touch of vanilla and salted caramel, which is typical of our terroir. The complexity of the final aromatic bouquet is entirely natural, making this rosé wine perfect for gastronomy.
Ageing potential: very long aging potential, 10 to 15 years without any issues.
