Over deze wijn
Achtergrondinformatie
The Pétale de Rose is one of the first pale rosés, light salmon coloured, of the Provence. Colour is pale rose petal, with gentle silvery hues.
Nose is delicate, offering ripe strawberry and nectarine aromas, flowery notes such as peony, some orange blossom,
intertwined with tangerine peel, some aniseed and liquorice coming along with a subtle smoky, but airy sensation.
Palate is dry and mellow, caressing with satin-like texture, medium plus acidity and generous zests giving spiciness.
Flavours are intense, pungent with lots of liquorice and pink pepper melting into the sweet fruitiness of strawberry and peach.
Finish is long, with noble balsamic bitterness, offering a slightly tannic touch, and thus a certain structure.
Great with food, can keep well for the next 1-2 years.

- Vinificatie
- The vineyards are worked by hand, using natural animal fertilizers. Buds are trimmed and a green harvest is practice to purposefully limit yields. A part of the vineyard is plowed with horses. The area between the rows of vines is grassed over with cereals. Alle druiven worden handmatig geoogst, gesorteerd, niet ontsteeld en direct in een hydraulische Champenois Coquard pers geladen zonder te pletten. De druiven worden licht geperst om een optimale delicatesse en geur te verkrijgen vanuit het hart van de druiven. Wines ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel, gravityfed cuves. De Pétale de Rose wordt uitsluitend gemaakt 1e kwaliteit sappen. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation. For the 2016 vintage we used 50% native yeasts for the fermentation and we aim to do 100% for the next vintage. The wine is bottled at the Château la Tour de l’Evêque.
