Mas de Cadenet 2019 Rosé, Cotes de Provence Saint Victoire, Provence, France
- Winemaker: Negrel family
- Varieties: 45% Grenache, 45% Cinsault, 10% Syrah
- Terroir / Soil: Limestone topped by iron. Cool nighttime temperatures with winds descending from the Alps.
- Vinification: Early morning harvest (must at 10°C). Destemming, crushing of the berries and skin maceration. Low temperature alcoholic fermentation (18°C), rack of gross lees. Blending of the grape varieties.
- Tasting Notes: Fresh, barely ripened red berries, soft blood orange notes and whiffs of tarragon and mint burst through on the attack, but the wine's acid driven-attack is rounded by a savory white cream finish. This is classic, textbook alpine-influenced Grenache and Cinsault rosé at its best!
