in the cellar : This rosé was made in a traditional manner; the juice was separated from the skins after 48 hours of skin contact for the Grenache Noir and 24 hours for the Merlot and Cabernet Franc until the colour was deemed fine. The juice was then settled and fermented cool at temperatures of 13 - 15.5°C to retain the wonderful fruit aromas. The components were then blended and stabilized for bottling.
