AOP Côtes de Provence.
The coastal land of Château Barbeyrolles is located in the Maures hills area, on the peninsula of Saint-Tropez. All twelve hectares have shaley soils dating back to the Paleozoïc era.

GRAPES

42% Grenache, 28% Mourvèdre, 23% Cinsault, 4,5% Ugni-Blanc, 2% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 0,5% Sémillon.

Average age of the vines : 35 years old.

VINTAGE

After a dry autumn and winter, budburst began on 27 March. Flowering began on 17 May. The summer was marked by very hot weather, particularly in the second half of August. Harvesting began on 21 August and finished on 15 September. Harvesters had to start working at 3 a.m. because of the sweltering heat.

GROWING

The vineyards are worked by hand, using natural animal fertilizers and treating the soil with sulphur and copper only from 3 generations. We do not use any chemical weed killers. Buds are trimmed and a green harvest is practice to purposefully limit yields. A part of the vineyard is plowed with horses. The area between the rows of vines is grassed over with cereals.

VINIFICATION

All grapes are harvested by hand, sorted, not de-stemmed and directly loaded into the press without crushing. The grapes are lightly pressed so as to obtain optimum delicacy and fragrance from the very heart of the grapes. Wines ferment in temperature- controlled stainless steel, gravity-fed cuves. The Pétale de Rose is exclusively made of 1st quality juices. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation.

TASTING NOTES

This pastel nuanced rosé delivers a composition of Mediterranean essence interlaced with peaches, strawberry, orange. The pristine palate is precise, soft with fresh dynamics. “Pétale de rose” is enveloped with a grainy zesty texture woven with fruits and spices. With great finesse combining refinement and structure, it is the food friendly rosé.
