Chateau Routas Rouviere 2020

Freshly cut watermelon, ripe peach aromas and floral notes lead to a palate alive with wild strawberries and hints of mineral notes. Crisp acidity and a refreshing finish. ThisRos is made from 46% Cinsault, 30% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties.

On the cool uplands of northern Provence, at 250 to 270m, a blend of Cinsault and Grenache with a touch of old vine fruit from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon are grown to make the ros. The clay and limestone soils further emphasise the freshness and acidity and result in a long slow maturation season and harvest dates around a month later than those on the coast.
