Languedoc Rosé 2019
Hecht & Bannier
Grapes are sourced from vineyards with soils rich in limestone and clay that border the Etang of Thau, and from schist-rich vineyards from the area around Saint Chinian. Syrah for this Rosé is picked slightly earlier than the rest in order to retain a higher acidity level.
Vinification: The ripe grapes are pressed and vinified exclusively in stainless steel vats.
Additional Information
Floral and spicy expression with ripe raspberry, a round palate with flavors of cherry and lifted by bright pineapple. Strawberry, watermelon and pomegranate nuances abound in this delectable crispy and dry wine that pairs with just about anything.

VinePair Date: Wednesday, April 29, 2020 The 25 Best Rosé Wines of 2020 -- "Like eating strawberries on the beach, this wine smells of wild berries seasoned with a spray of sea water.
