Chateau Minuty

Chateau Minuty Rose et Or

£30.00

This cuvée is an estate wine. It was born in 2009 with the determination to push even further the search for delicacy and elegance on the palate, as well as the aromatic generosity on the nose, signatures of the Domaine. To achieve this, the estate's three great terroirs have been skilfully blended, and Rose et Or embodies the taste of Château Minuty.

Grapes 100% from the estate, harvested by hand. HVE (High Environmental Value) certification for the entire property since 2019 (160 hectares). The grapes are harvested by hand when just ripe and come from three terroirs: Gassin, the site of the Château, with its beautiful crystalline schist; Vidauban, the historic site, with its deep red clay soils; and Ramatuelle, on the sands with a view of the sea, for lightness. 100% free-run juice selected by Jean-Etienne and François Matton, who are in charge of pressing. These free-run juices are collected by gravity in the vats, then subjected to meticulous settling and alcoholic fermentation with drastic temperature control. No malolactic fermentation, as with all Minuty rosés.

A cuvée full of finesse: aromas with notes of citrus fruit and garrigue. Airy on the palate. Its minerality gives it a distinctive freshness, enhanced by a salinity typical of the terroir.
