Clarendelle Bordeaux Rosé
Tasting notes
Thanks to very short maceration in a controlled atmosphere and direct pressing, the wine has a beautiful pale pink colour as well as a rich, smooth flavour.
The nose displays the Clarendelle Rosé style, with hints of tangy red fruit, as well as ripe citrus such as pink grapefruit and tropical fruit such as lychee.
Round, very mineral, and slightly saline on the palate, Clarendelle Rosé is altogether delicious. It is suave and concentrated, while remaining tremendously fresh and fruity.
Climate
This is a wine of excellent quality thanks to a truly beautiful Indian summer with fine weather during the harvest. The wine is wonderfully fresh and fruity because the Merlot grapes were picked in early September.
Our selected rosé wines come from dedicated plots, picked in September or October depending on the ripeness of the different grape varieties.
