Domaine Charvin Cotes du Rhone ROSE Organic 2022 750ml

Laurent Charvin runs this small family estate located in the north of Chateauneuf-du-Pape. The domaine has vineyard holdings of just 8 hectares in Chateauneuf-du-Pape and 13 hectares in Cotes du Rhone. The average age of the vineyards is over 50 years old with the oldest being nearly 80 years of age. Laurent Charvin describes his vineyard site as being cool for Chateauneuf as their vines are mostly planted on sandy north facing slopes. Certified organic.

James Suckling This excellent Southern French rosé neatly combines the fine red berry aromas we expect from this category with a moderately rich mouthfeel, then the freshness kicks   in at the bright and pristine finish.  From organically grown grapes. Drink now.  —  Steven Pigott
