Description
This Rose is a blend of 95% Grolleau Gris and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is made in the Anjou Appelation but intentionally declassified to VDF. The name is a riff on Rose d’Anjou the famous off dry wine of the area. It translated to on day rose.
Ferme de la Sansonnière was purchased in 1990 by Mark Angeli. This 7 hectare estate is made of plots in Anjou, Coteaux-du-Layon and Bonnezeaux appellation. Coteaux-du-Layon and Bonnezeaux can only be claimed as AOC for the production of sweet moëlleux or liquoreux wines every year. Mark Angeli decided to produce dry white wines from Chenin Blanc and left the appellation system. All the wines are now produced under the “Vin de France” appellation giving Mark more freedom. His holistic farming style has resulted in strong vines that produce perfectly-ripened, healthy grapes which he ferments to as dry a style as possible, with of course some vintage variations.
