Grapes were picked as early as 4am to ensure that their delicate aromas, flavours and freshness were captured. Fermentation at low temperatures preserved the aromas of the fruit. A state of the art production process minimised the influence of oxygen, establishing an easy to drink wine with finished of red berries, grapefruit and honey. Grenache 60%, Syrah 20%, Cinsault 20%. 30% Saignee, 70% of gentle direct pressing. Fermentation between 14 degrees and 16 degrees celcius.

Farmed organically, the AIX Rose is made from the top blend of Maison Saint Aix
