This pale peach-colored rosé Cassis, a blend of Grenache (70%) and Cinsault, is exceptionally delicate. The glass exudes citrus notes combining fruit and floral touches. With incredible finesse, the palate is silky and fresh, offering perfect balance. A delightful wine for the table!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2021 guide) 1*Star (A serious production, recommendable, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
The château has a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century. Until the 20th century, its agricultural activity focused on mixed farming, and it was only in 1922, when the estate was purchased by Colonel Teed, a subject of Her Majesty the Queen, that viticulture took off. He cultivated not only the vines, but also his artistic taste, and it was thanks to him that illustrious artists came to spend time in Cassis. Acquired in 1987 by Jean-François Brando, the 25 hectares of vines are grouped around the château, at the foot of the Couronne de Charlemagne, on stony clay-limestone soil. It has the distinction of producing 15% red wine, a rarity in the appellation. For our tasting this year, only one cuvée was presented. We hope that next year the entire range will be back.

About the estate:
A fountain dug in 1687 to supply running water to the castle under construction is the origin of the estate's name, which winemaker Jean-François Brando acquired exactly three centuries later, in 1987. After the Revolution, this place was also the residence of the commissioners of the Republic. Today, the vineyard covers 25 hectares, producing Cassis wines of very consistent quality. A sure bet.
