£15.00 – £81.00
Acquired in 1999 by Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite), the 550 hectare estate has witnessed a vast rehabilitation project. To date, 167 hectares of vines have been replanted with carefully selected traditional Languedoc grape varieties: Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan, complemented by Cabernet, Merlot and Chardonnay. Aussières Rosé is the harmonious marriage of the traditional grape varieties Cinsault, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Cabernet Franc. It is distinguished by its aromatic finesse and freshness, characteristic of the terroir of Aussières.
Tasting notes
Beautiful grapefruit colour with glints of raspberry. Very appealing, expressive nose with generous notes of fruit and boiled sweets. The palate is rounded, full and generous, offering a fresh, spicy finish with notes of white pepper and liquorice.
