Presentation
Presentation
Ripaille Rosé is a blend of Cinsault, Grenache & Syrah. These grapes were carefully selected in the best vineyards of Provence to attain a fruit-forward, full-bodied blend that is fresh and lively. The wine is intense pink with purple-blue hues, and the nose is complex and expressive with intense raspberry and strawberry notes.
Winemaking

Tasting
This is an impressive blend, packed with ripe strawberry fruits, rhubarb and citrus notes as well as a full and rounded character. The red fruits are balanced by a crisp edge that will allow it to age for several months. Ripaille Provence has great intensity as well as strong minerality and saltiness. It's rich, juicy and structured. The nearest equivalent to this style of rosé is crisp dry white wines and they’ll go with similar food: light salads (Niçoise), pasta and rice dishes, especially with seafood, raw (fish roe and salmon tartare) and lightly cooked shellfish and grilled fish and goats’ cheeses.
Reviews
"A fresh and tangy wine, this has acidity that lifts caramel and spice into the red-fruit flavors. With its bright aftertaste, the wine is ready to drink."
