Moulin de Pontfract Rosé 2017

Var IGP

Delicious rosé with real star quality from Provence, the epicentre of luxury pinks. It’s from Monsieur Paul’s 350 year old family estate, Domaine de Pontfract. By choosing to label it as Var, rather than Côtes de Provence, it's great value too.

Provence is synonymous with film star glitterati, sunshine and delicate hued rosés many regard as the best in the world. Although the region has become one of the pricier corners of France to visit, wines like this help us all to enjoy the Côte d’Azur lifestyle from home! It comes from a 17th century estate, just outside the town of Correns, owned by the dapper Monsieur Paul. He's been tending the vines since WW2 and has an ideal spot for them – an amphitheatre shaped plot, where the chalky stone soils are bathed in sunshine all summer long. Using equal parts of Grenache and Cinsault, gently pressed, this is a charming rosé – fresh and fruity with delightful floral and berry scents. Enjoy on its own, with olive tapenade or fresh seafood.
