Barrique Rosé Collection

More and more winegrowers break boundaries to create more structured and multi-layered Rosé wines. Some Rosés are even crafted like the greatest wines from Burgundy! We’re talking fermentation and aging in oak barrels. 

The added depth from fermentation or aging in oak create a new style of Rosé that is very food-friendly and capable of standing up to dishes like dark meat! These Gourmet Rosés are very versatile. They can be enjoyed during a Summer Barbecue with grilled meat or during Festive season and as a general rule with heavier food!

This box contains 6 bottles, each 0.75 l.

Flavors of classic Provençal herbs such as rosemary, sage and lavender, leading to strawberry notes and a touch of black cherry. Flavors of shiso leaf, Asian spices and watermelon give a very long finish.

This is a serious wine that can match with grilled lamb, burgers, sausages grilled over an open flame or a roasted duck.
