Sables d'Azur Rosé 2008

Côtes-de-Provence vineyards have their roots in the Bouches-du-Rhone, at the foothills of Mount Sainte-Victoire. These Côtes-de-Provence vineyards cling to the slopes in “restanques,” man-made dry stonewalls supporting hillside terraces, or isolated in the middle of pinewoods. Here they benefit fully from the Mediterranean climate: mild winters, early spring and moderate summers when the sun’s continuous rays ensure the vines produce fully matured grapes with oozing, ripe juice.

TASTING NOTES
Eye: very nice pink, with a tint of raspberry.
Nose: very delicate and complex, with smells of roses, white peach and plum.
Palate: follows a very balanced mouth, fresh and round, with a full load of fruit that surprises with its softness.
