The bright, rose-petal color of this rosé suggests a subtle floral aromatic expression. In tasting, we discover refreshing notes of citrus fruits, summer fruits and a lingering finish.

About the Wine

'Barely medium-bodied with bright strawberry and summer-flower aromas, this is a crisp and charming Southern French rosé that is very refreshing. Attractive candied-orange character at the juicy and slightly salty finish.

The quality of our wines lies in the careful attention given to each stage of the winemaking process. The grapes are grown in carefully selected plots and picked at dawn in order to preserve pale colour, crunchy aromas and freshness. They immediately undergo a gentle pressing. Some of the fine lees are kept bringing roundness and finesse.'

Vineyard Notes

The vineyards are located in the Southern Rhone Valley and grown on chalky-clay alluvial plains and stony hillside. The grapes are harvested at optimum maturity to express the best fruit flavors of Grenache. The vineyard is managed in an environmentally respectful way.

Importer Notes

The Les Dauphins brand is inspired by the early 1920s, a time when Paris was enjoying a glorious period of post-war decadence known as Les Années Folles (The Crazy Years!). Art, literature, cinema and music were thriving in France’s capital and these creative minds also fell in love with France’s iconic wines.
Les Dauphins is crafted by a small network of family winemakers from the Dauphiné region of the Rhône Valley who joined forces to make delicious wines that fueled the creative revolution in bistros across Paris. The Dauphiné supplied countless Parisian restaurants, and became extremely popular thanks to the exuberance and versatility of their wines, which paired beautifully with classic French bistro dishes.

Today, Les Dauphins continues to uphold this legacy of excitement and creativity with their fabulous portfolio of excellent red, white and rosé wines from vineyards in the Southern Rhône. Headed up by talented winemaker Guillaume Valli, Les Dauphins favors those traditional grape varieties that have inspired palates for generations; Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. The result? Beautifully balanced, energetic and fruit-driven wines that are the ultimate accompaniment to quiet evenings in and special occasions alike.

Blend: 85% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5% Cinsault
