Cote des Roses Rosé France
Description
Cote des Roses celebrates the essence of the Mediterranean lifestyle, with its roots deeply embedded along the scenic stretch of the Languedoc appellation, adjacent to the Mediterranean coast. The diversity in soils, ranging from hard limestone and schist to the gravels carried by the rivers of Languedoc, contributes to the unique character of Cote des Roses. Its distinctive bottle, with a base shaped like a rose, is the brainchild of a talented young designer from the Ecole Boulle, symbolizing a bouquet of roses embodied in wine.
Winegrower’s Insight: The dedication to capturing the essence of each grape variety shines through in the winemaking process. Grapes are harvested at their peak of ripeness individually, ensuring the nuanced expression of each variety and the land. Embracing technology, the harvest is conducted mechanically, equipped with a sorting system to select the best of the crop. The grapes, once de-stemmed and cooled, undergo a careful pressing process, ensuring that only the finest juice is extracted. This meticulous attention to detail extends through the fermentation process, tailored to achieve a precise aromatic profile, culminating in a wine that captures the fresh, fruity essence of its origins.
Tasting Notes: Cote des Roses presents a robe of soft, pale pink with hints of bluish tints that evolve into orangey nuances over time, mirroring the hues of a Mediterranean dawn. Its bouquet is a celebration of summer, with the scents of ripe summer fruits, cassis, and redcurrant, complemented by the delicate floral aroma of roses and the zest of grapefruit. The palate experiences a harmony of freshness and fullness, leading to a finish that is both fresh and sweet, echoing the balance and aromatic persistence of this exquisite rosé.
Food & Wine Pairing: Served ideally at 10°C, Cote des Roses is a perfect companion for an aperitif, embracing the shellfish delicacies and subtly spiced dishes that epitomize Mediterranean cuisine. This Languedoc rosé is not just a wine; it's an invitation to partake in the Mediterranean way of life, celebrating moments with the same joy and beauty as offering a bunch of roses.
Bottle Engraving allows for the transformation of each bottle into a personal token or a heartfelt gift, akin to a customized bouquet of roses. Whether commemorating an occasion, celebrating a moment, or simply wishing to convey affection, an engraved Cote des Roses bottle becomes a cherished keepsake, further enriching the sensory pleasure of the wine within.
