MEATY, HERBAL, FLORAL
WHY WE LOVE IT:
YUM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ROSÉ.
BITTER GRAPEFRUIT, PLUSH STRAWBERRY, AND COASTAL HERBS AND SPICES. THERE’S BODY, WEIGHT AND COMPLEXITY HERE, ALL SET AGAINST A TAPESTRY OF INCREDIBLE FRESHNESS AND DRIVE. THIS BOTTLE KEEPS EVOLVING, AND IS A SERIOUS PLEASURE TO DRINK.
ENJOY WITH PROSCIUTTO AND MELON, SARDINES, SASHIMI, PRAWNS… YOU GET OUR DRIFT.
The story began in 1963 when sommelier turned vigneron Georges Delille purchased a promising vineyard bordered by the Mediterranean and the Gros-Cerveau mountains, east of Bandol. The first ten years were dedicated to reviving, renovating and replanting vineyards following the divine directives of local legend Lucien Peyraud (Domaine Tempier).
Today Renald farms organically, hand-ploughing and green harvesting to ensure flavour concentration. All grapes are hand harvested and selected in the vineyard before entering the cellar.
The detailed and patient approach is consistent in the underground cellar; gentle pressings and gravity-fed transfers. The result is very age-worthy, an average 20 years for reds and 10-15 years for whites and even the Rosé. Thankfully we’ve done a portion of the bottle-ageing for you, so 'patient cellaring' is optional on your end.
