Origins

This range of easy-drinking wines, pays tribute to the great noble French varietals and especially to the roots of Ropiteau Frères.

Varietal

60% Black Grenache
40% Cinsault, very well-known for producing great rosés

Vinification and maturing

The grapes once harvested were directly pressed to prevent any long maceration of the black grapes ; it’s the key to get a fruity and lightly colored wine. Fermentation took place at low temperatures (16°) to keep all the fruity aromas.
