Arômes des Maures
2022
AOP Côtes de Provence
Our “Rosé gastronomique” for the happiness of your palate. Named after our region, fermented in old barriques and limited to 3000 bottles. A superbly different Provence Rosé.
Wine
This « Rosé de garde » revives an old tradition of our estate: a rosé made from tannic grapes and vinified for 4 months in 3-4 year old barriques. We call it "passage en fûts". A rosé for all year round, fresh, with a beautiful structure and elegant as to its very suttle notes of oak. Recalibrate your palate to appreciate a whole different complexity and richness! Begin a beautiful journey into the land of spices and flowers, to the land of our Arômes des Maures, named after our region.
Tasting notes
The colour is pale and brilliant, peachy with sandy nuances.
The nose is delicate and complex, with floral scents of lilac, rose as well as fresh tones of spices, pepper and vanilla.
The palate is crisp and delicious, with aromas of candy, peach aromas and lively hints of ginger and sapid.
The finish is very delicate with zest aromas and light tannins providing substance and persistence.
Food Pairing
In terms of food and wine pairing, forget about barbecues and picnics and turn to other ideas for pairing this rosé. Choose exotic and spicy food which pairs well with ginger or pepper, ceviche, Moroccan dishes and more particularly the Vietnamese cuisine with its finesse, lightness and its subtle perfume of aromatic herbs (coriander, peppermint, Thai basil). Of course, this wine is always a superb alternative to a fresh and light red wine to accompany any kind of meat.
If you love cheese we recommend a full-flavoured Gruyère from Switzerland or a mild Comté from the French Jura.
For dessert, we like sweet and salty treats with the Arômes des Maures such as a tarte tatin with salted caramel and lavender or a dark chocolate with lemon.
Gold Medal: Le Concours des Vignerons Indépendants 2024
The Concours des Vignerons Indépendants is not the oldest, it does not have the largest number of candidates, nor the largest number of samples, but it is the only wine and spirits competition where only one category of producer competes: the winegrowers who make their wines in private cellars, the winegrowers who make their wines from A to Z, in other words: the Vignerons Indépendants. The Concours des Vignerons Indépendants is approx. 4500 samples that are tasted by more than 1300 tasters. It differs from other competitions by having a jury composed essentially of trained and qualified consumers. This guarantees both the independence of its results and its credibility. This openness to the final buyer is a real originality. The tasters are recruited from among wine lovers, members of wine clubs and enthusiastic visitors to the Independent Winegrowers' Wine Fairs. These tasters follow training courses on the mechanisms and techniques of tasting. These modules give them an approach to the tasting competition and harmonise the vocabulary between tasters.
