Description
Jacques Seysses, from Domaine Dujac, and Aubert de Villaines, from iconic Domaine de la Romanée Conti, have teamed up with Michel Macaux, a Parisian, to acquire a 46-hectare Mediterranean estate. The 2022 IGP Mediterranee Rosé, mostly Cinsault alongside Grenache, Syrah and Merlot, exhales a fresh, delicate bouquet with aromas of red berries, lemon, pomegranate, wild strawberry and spices. Juicy, fresh and perfectly balanced, with a delicate, sappy texture, it’s long with mineral acids, iodine notes and a penetrating, mouthwatering finish.
After taking over the estate this all-star team began replanting vines, aiming to recreate a healthy vineyard much like their own in Burgundy. They work with cover crops to reduce artificial fertiliser and only use organic materials in the vineyards. In 2008 they began conversion to certified organic.
The grapes are picked in the cool of the night to retain maximum freshness, then foot crushed and before the juice is run off into concrete tanks and old casks. The wine is then left for 12 months before bottling. Slight filtration, no fining.
