Summertime by La Gordonne – 2019 – Rosé wine

Summertime by la Gordonne is a harmonious rosé wine with the Côtes de Provence appellation. It was produced by Château La Gordonne, a Provencal domain unique in the region since it holds 330 hectares of vines cultivated in a schist cirque oriented towards the sea. The vines were able to benefit from a special microclimate where winters are often mild and summers very hot and dry. It is all the heat of the sun which is transmitted in this rosé wine and thanks to the presence of the mistral, a violent and dry wind, the vines are moreover very well protected from diseases linked to humidity.

The two grape varieties making up this Summertime by la Gordonne are Grenache and Syrah which have been manually harvested at night to preserve the aromatic freshness.

The pressing is carried out directly after the harvest and consists in extracting the juice from the grape berry and the aging is done in stainless steel tanks or in coated concrete.

Summertime by la Gordonne has a pale robe, has a complex nose borrowed from arbutus and citrus notes. The mouth oscillates between gluttony and freshness before lingering on a persistent and delicate finish.

Serve between 10 and 11 ° C during an aperitif or a fish-based starter.
