Shimmering pink with crisp aromas that pack a punch with yellow grapefruit, whitecurrant, blood orange and fresh berries such as raspberry. It’s just as crisp, strong and clean on the palate with a lovely salty and zingy aftertaste. This is a vibrant wine that packs a punch.
The lovely earthy aftertaste is ideal for seafood, with salty oysters making a match made in heaven as well as whelks, clams and anything on a seafood platter. Fish ceviche and sushi, California rolls and grilled sh work just as well. Let’s not forget Italian cuisine with classic trattoria dishes including veal Milanese and spaghetti alle vongole or delicious Provençale specialities such as stuffed vegetables or vegetable stacks.
This vintage is a smart blend of a selection of Designation grapes with the winery’s own grapes. The winemaking process is executed with Minuty’s perfect understanding of winemaking temperatures that are low enough to lock in the grapes’ aromatic potential but high enough to bring out their subtleties. It blends Grenache for its elegant aromas, Syrah for its aromatic complexity, Cinsault for its vibrancy and Rolle, a top Provence white grape variety, for its earthy aromas.

At first, this wine’s pineapple-core waxiness dominates its ripe fruit. With some air, though, bitter aperitivo-herb scents lighten it, the flavors coalescing into cherry pit. It’s mouthwatering, and would garner compliments around the pool or at a high-end dinner party.

Lovely aromas of rosemary, grated nutmeg, baked lemon and green strawberry. Medium-bodied. Bright and fresh with a persistent finish. Tasty stuff. 60% grenache, 20% syrah, 10% cinsault, 10% rolle. Drink now.

Rich and having fine red fruits, this wine, with its high proportion of Grenache, has intense pepper flavor as well as crisp berry acidity. It is densely textured and ready to drink.
