VITICULTURE NOTES
The world’s best-known region for Rosé, AOP Côtes de Provence enjoys a refreshing Mediterranean climate of warm days and cool, brisk nights. Here, vine roots plunge deep below the dry clay soils and limestone gravel, called gravoches, to reach water. Vintages deliver concentrated, high quality fruit where ideal dry springs result in a wonderful fruit set. Careful canopy management allow clusters to develop bright, expressive flavors, intense aromatics and the crisp structure of Provençal Rosé.

WINEMAKING NOTES
The grapes selected for Fleur de Mer Rosé are harvested at ideal maturity, ensuring wonderful flavors and delicate structure. Grapes are picked in the cool early morning hours, then crushed, immediately pressed and cold settled to maintain the bright, concentrated fruit characteristics and attractive coral hue. Lots are fermented in cool, temperature-controlled tanks. Winemaker Florian Lacroux selects Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan to form the core of the blend, supported by other extraordinary Provençal grapes in a beautifully harmonious, layered Rosé wine.
