Varietal Carignan, Clairette Rose
Region Southern Rhone, France
The Ventoux is well known to cycling fans around the world as one of the key stages of the Tour de France. Over the past 10 years there has been an influx of young vignerons to this appellation of the Southern Rhone, and wine experts have put it firmly on their radar.
“This has textural nous and plenty of swagger. A deeper flavoured rose with a pale colour, some terracotta licks to texture, peach on cherry on Campari on exotic botanicals. And in all that a supreme drinkability and charm. Somewhere between Provence’s pale styles and Chateau Simone or Cibonne. Wholly its own thing though. Darn delicious.” - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
