CHARDONNAY

Winegrower’s note
Cote des Roses celebrates the Mediterranean lifestyle. The Languedoc appellation stretches alongside the Mediterranean coast The soils are highly varied, mainly with hard limestone and schist, but also gravel transported by the rivers of the Languedoc region The bottle is original with its base in the shape of a rose, created by a young designer from the Ecole Boulle A wine to be given in the same way you would offer a bunch of roses!

Winemaker’s note
The various grape varieties are harvested separately when each of them is just at the right ripeness level The winemaking process is managed to respect the specific characteristics of the grape varieties and the qualities of the soil The grapes are mechanically harvested with a built in sorting system The grapes are de stemmed, cooled down to 8 C and transferred to the press. Particular attention is paid to the pressing to ensure that only the first, highest quality juice is kept The juice is then left to settle according to the precise aromatic profile that is being targeted The fermentation lasts between 15 and over 30 days, depending on the degree of clarification and the temperature Finally, after a light fining, the wine is bottled quite early to preserve the fresh, fruity character of the wines

Tasting notes
This cuvée is endowed with a beautiful yellow colour with light golden reflections The nose, fresh and intense, reveals aromas of citrus and exotic fruits, white flowers with hints of candy, pear and pineapple The opulent and tasty palate combines liveliness and purity thanks to a dominating minerality.

SAUVIGNON BLANC

Winegrower’s note
Cote des Roses celebrates the Mediterranean lifestyle. The Languedoc appellation stretches alongside the Mediterranean coast. The soils are highly varied, mainly with hard limestone and schist, but also gravel transported by the rivers of the Languedoc region. The original bottle, with its rose shaped base was created by a young designer from the Ecole Boulle. Cote des roses is a wine to give in the same as a bunch of roses!

Winemaker’s note
To obtain the intensity that characterizes this grape variety, the Sauvignon needs to be picked at a specific time. The grapes are tasted before the harvest and then picked during the night to preserve the freshness of the fruit before being delicately pressed at the winery. During approximately 5 months, about 10 of the wine is vinified in French barrels, while the rest is put into thermo regulated vats at low temperature to preserve the richness and freshness of the aromas. Finally, after a light fining, the wine is bottled quite early in order to preserve the fresh and fruity character of the wines.

Tasting note
This cuvée has a pale golden and crystalline colour. A beautiful roundness on the palate is brought by the terroirs of the South of France, which allow it to develop notes of guava and passion fruit, while its citrus fruit aromas bring a lot of freshness and minerality.
