Pale pink colour with copper hue. Floral nose with violet notes, red berries and ripe citrus. The palate has good layers, fresh and structured with mild extract, a crisp acidity, juicy red fruit citrus notes and good length. The highly anticipated new release of Aix Rose emerged after a long harvest which began with Syrah on the 6th of September and concluded with harvesting Grenache on October 5th. The different levels of maturity of the grapes, due to Spring rain, led to a long harvest. The good weather conditions during harvest allowed time for optimum control of the maturity. The fruit quality was superb; the berries were perfectly ripe and full of varietal flavours. 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. From humble beginnings in 1880 as a truffle orchard, the vineyard was converted over to vines in the early 1900s making it today one of the largest Domaines in the AOP Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence area. The vineyard is situated 420m above sea-level and aspect is south-west which allows it to receive around 300 days of sunshine. Farmed organically, the AIX Rose is made from the top blend of Maison Saint Aix
