Tasting note
A classic Provençal Rosé, Fleur de Mer is a brilliant pale pink colour, beautifully balanced with bright fruit notes and crisp acidity. Delicate aromas of fresh watermelon and cherry give way to a complex, refreshing palate. Layers of red berries and subtle citrus are complemented by a softly textured middle and a fine, cleansing, mineral finish.
Viticulture
In the Côtes de Provence, a Mediterranean climate with warm days and cool nights nurtures vine roots that reach deep into clay and limestone soils. The 2018 season, with early spring rain, led to ripe red fruits and soft acidity in our Rosé.
Vinification
Freshly-harvested grapes were direct-pressed to preserve the bright, concentrated fruit characteristics and produce our pleasing coral pink hue. For this vintage, Winemaker Florian Lacroux selected primarily Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan which blend harmoniously and bring remarkable consistency to the final wine.
