Vrac Vin de Pays de Mediterranee Rosé

Vrac Vin de Pays de Mediterranee Rose pays homage to a simpler time when locals in the countryside of Southern France would bring their own containers to their local winery for a refill. This custom is a beautiful reflection of European attitude toward wine; Wine need not be over thought. Instead it's just a delicious part of any meal.

Vrac Vin de Pays de Mediterranee Rose is made by taking red grapes and only allowing brief contact between the juice and skins while the juice is held cold. This is called the “Saignee" method and it helps create a wine light in color with hints of red fruit flavors and flowers. The grapes, Grenache, Cinsault, and Tibourenc are the perfect palette for the winemaker. Grenache is the backbone of the wine providing body and richness, while Cinsault and Tibourenc add to complexity and color. The flexible Vin de Pays category in France allows the winemaker to source grapes from a much larger area than the more restrictive Appellation D'origine Controlee. This gives way to flexibility and creativity for the winemaker, as well cost savings for drinkers.

Beautiful and delicate pale pink in color, the look of this wine conjures an image of a relaxing day sipping wine overlooking the Pyrenees in Southern France. Subtle and delicate aromas of strawberry, raspberry and citrus with a backbone of mountain slate. The Vrac Vin de Pays de Mediterranee Rose is crisp, clean and refreshing. Enjoy this wine with salad, oysters, fish or light meat dishes.
