This luminous pearl-pink rosé reveals a nose that oscillates between flowers and fruit, from iris to peach and strawberry to violet. On the palate, it's full-bodied, mineral and smooth! Mouth-filling peach and strawberry, refreshing fresh mint and violet (signatures of the terroir)... A wine for conviviality and gastronomy!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2021) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Diane and her sister Constance are the third generation of women to dynamically manage the 50 hectares of l'Engarran, scattered around a beautiful folly built in the 18th century. Diane, in charge of vinification, is constantly striving for greater precision. We can only admire the energy and healthy ambition that drive the two sisters. The style highlights the great ripeness of the grapes, making the wines opulent. We note a progression in the quality of the tannins, which are much finer and rounder. More freshness in the wines will further enhance their drinkability. The cuvée with the château's name is our favorite, so don't miss it.
