Coeur Clémentine Côtes de Provence Rosé 2021

This house favourite is a blend of Grenache, Cinsault and the rare Tibouren grape (an indigenous variety said to bring aromas of garrigue, the herby scrub of southern France). There’s also a splash of Syrah. The grapes are sourced from organically managed chalky/clay parcels in the heart of the Côtes de Provence, around the picture-perfect commune of Puget-Ville. Jean-Christophe Audéoud looks after the winemaking, utilising the traditional direct-press method, followed by maturation in both concrete and stainless steel.
