Sourcing its Gamay from the hillsides of the famed Mont Brouilly, today the 40+ year old vines are farmed specifically for rosé production, something few producers in the region do with terroir of this quality. To piggyback on to the subsequent review from Vinous, this is far from your everyday, daily-drinker rosé. Mineral notes swirl within the wine’s compact core of acidity, bringing stony flavors that morph into red fruits and citrus with spice.
90 POINTS: VINOUS - Light, bright orange. Vibrant, spice-accented orange zest and pomegranate aromas show tight focus and a hint of succulent herbs. Dry and precise on the palate, redcurrant, cherry and blood orange flavors unfold slowly through the back half. Finishes long and taut, with a floral note emerging slowly. Definitely not your typical easy-drinking pink wine.
