"On the nose, this very pale rosé expresses itself with clarity and intensity around red fruits and spices. On the palate, too, it's generous, full-bodied, dense, fat and persistent with dried fruit and citrus. A strong character that has earned it a place at the "coups de coeur" table.

Expert opinion
Guide Hachette des vins
Wine rated (2017 guide) 2**Stars (Outstanding wine)
Rated domain (2017 guide) Awarded wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the wine:
On the nose, this very pale rosé expresses itself with clarity and intensity around red fruits and spices. On the palate, too, it's generous, full-bodied, dense and fleshy, with persistent notes of dried fruit and citrus. A strong character that has earned it a place at the "Coup de Coeur" table.
About the domain :
Acquired in 2003 and restructured by Jean-Paul and Nancy Bignon, who also own Ch. Talbot, a Saint Julien cru classé in the Médoc, this 26-hectare vineyard enjoys a privileged clay-limestone terroir at an altitude of 380 m, at the foot of the Bessillon. Two labels here: Dom. Saint Andrieu in Côtes-de-Provence and Oratoire Saint Andrieu in Coteaux-Varois, not to mention olive oil production.
