2025 Costieres de Nimes Rose, Fontaine de Sud, France
A fresh and elegant southern French rosé from the Costières de Nîmes appellation, where Rhône and Mediterranean influences combine to create wines of charm, balance and vibrant fruit character. Made from Grenache and Syrah, this pale rosé offers all the refreshment of Provence with the generous fruit profile for which the region is renowned. Tasting Notes: Pale pink in colour with delicate powder-pink reflections. The nose is fresh and refined, offering aromas of wild strawberry, redcurrant and subtle floral notes reminiscent of peony blossom. On the palate, bright red berry fruit is complemented by crisp acidity and a gentle floral lift. Dry, refreshing and beautifully balanced, it finishes with elegance and purity. Winemaking: Produced from a blend of Grenache and Syrah grown on the distinctive pebble-strewn soils of Costières de Nîmes. Traditional vinification preserves the freshness and aromatic expression of the fruit, resulting in a rosé that is vibrant, approachable and ideally suited to warm-weather drinking. Food Pairing: Perfect as an aperitif and equally enjoyable with seafood, grilled fish and summer salads. It also pairs beautifully with Mediterranean cuisine, charcuterie and light poultry dishes. ABV: 13%
