Domaine Guiberteau Saumur Les Moulins Rose 2024 750ml

Producer Notes — Vintage 2024

Domaine Guiberteau is one of the Loire Valley’s most celebrated estates, and Les Moulins is their entry-level rosé — a cuvée originally created for vineyards undergoing organic certification, now showcasing purchased grapes and young Domaine vines alongside the estate’s signature precision. Produced under the Chai de la Dive négociant project.

Made from Cabernet Franc, whole-cluster pressed and fermented with ambient yeasts in stainless steel, with malolactic conversion blocked to preserve freshness. The result is a bright, precise, and food-friendly rosé with real Loire character.

Terroir

Sourced from multiple sites across Berrie (clay-sand over Turonian limestone), Puy-Notre-Dame (silty-sandy-clay over Turonian limestone), and Montreuil-Bellay (clay-sand over Jurassic limestone) — each contributing distinct texture and minerality to the blend.

Vinification

Whole-cluster pressing → 24-hour settling → 3-week ambient yeast fermentation in stainless steel → malolactic blocked → 6 months on stainless → tangential flow filtration. Low SO2 intervention throughout.
