Gold medal at Mondial du Rosé 2008
When Chablis-born Michel Laroche moved to the Languedoc region of southern France, he was undoubtedly looking for terroirs that would produce the very best wines. Add to this a rigorous selection of grapes and very favorable weather conditions in 2007, and you get a lively, fresh 2007 Mas La Chevalière rosé, with notes of strawberry and raspberry, and a supple, generous mouthfeel. If you've ever dreamed of hugging a champion, now's the time...
