Miss Quiot in Rosé... a refined sensuality of its aromas.
Story
The story
Provence attracts you... its beauty, its landscapes. Here a simple Mediterranean Rosé that will take you in your memories or dreams of vacation.
The vintage
Capricious weather for the 2020 vintage, a spring alternation of cold and hot but the good summer weather and the Indian summer allowed a good harvest.
Location
The plots are located between the Sainte Victoire and the Aurélien mountains, a contrasting setting with a characterful atmosphere. The brightness is breathtaking and has also inspired Cézanne when he came to the domaine.
Terroir
The plot, in one piece, is clay and limestone. It borders the eastern end of the domaine.
In the vineyard
All of our domaines are identically cultivated, AOC or IGP plots, in accordance with the specifications.
Harvest start date
September 2020
Vinification
Alliance of modernity and tradition.
Direct pressing of the destemmed and lightly crushed grapes. Stainless steel tank and fermentation for 2 weeks at a monitored temperature around 18-20°C to promote aromas. A vinification very similar to our Côtes de Provence vinification.
