Note : Gault Millau 15/20
"A wine with an assertive southern flavor; with, on the nose, a beautiful expressive palette of red fruits and floral nuances. The whole is an enchantment that doesn't lack volume, with a fruity, fruity length." (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau). Rhône Paradox rosé boasts exceptional fruit, a quality that has become its signature over the years. Born south of the Costières, it is expressive, evoking a basket of fresh fruit (apricot, cherry, pear) mingling with hints of white flowers. The palate is greedy and lively, literally exploding with red berries such as wild strawberry and raspberry. A wine that's always balanced and fresh, for immediate pleasure !

Gault & Millau Wine Guide

Guide des Vins Gault & Millau

Estate rated (2012 guide) 3*Stars (Very good production)

About the domain :

"Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region still strongly marked by the cooperative movement. Attached to the Costières de Nîmes region, he settled at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs enables him to offer three types of cuvée: Rhône Paradox, based on freshness and purity of fruit; Compostelle, the result of selection from old vines and grapes from the best plots. And finally, Armonio, born of a meeting with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, among others).
