Description
Chateau Beaulieu Coteaux d'Aix en Provence
A beautiful clear peach color with lychee shades. It opens up to a herbaceous and vegetal nose with peach and subtle lemon aromas. In the mouth it's round with floral aromas. A structured rosé wine with a long finish.
Alexandre Rosé cuvée comes from 350 acres of vines implanted at the heart of the Beaulieu Estate, at the altitude of 430m. A blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Cabernet. The vineyard is composed of 140 hectares of the following grape varieties: Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault for the rosé/red wines and Cabernet-Sauvignon, Mourvèdre, Rolle and Sémillon for the white wines. Aside from the vines dedicated to the rosé production and 8 ha dedicated to Villa Baulieu wines, other crops grow on this land: almond trees, truffle oaks and agroforestery. The location faces the renowned Provencal region of the Lubéron, overlooks the Durance valley, and the Roque d'Anthéron, and offers a perfectly diversified ”terroir” well suited to vine growing.
The grapes go through direct pressing and low temperature fermentation.
