Rosé Wine
Jean-Luc Colombo La Dame du Rouet Rose 2021
Cellar for up to 3 years. Serve well chilled.
Bursting with elegance and vivacity, this charming Provencal rosé is the handiwork of leading local winemaker Jean-Luc Colombo. Known as the “Winemaking Wizard of the Rhone”, Jean-Luc is a devotee of the Syrah grape which he masterfully blends with Cinsault and Grenache to craft this particular bottling.
La Dame du Rouet has special meaning for Jean-Luc since as a child he would often sail along the Côte Bleue or “Blue Coast” just to the west of Marseilles. After returning safely to shore after passing the rocky coves of the coast he would always give thanks to the Lady of “Le Rouet” whose little chapel sits above her namesake cove. This graceful rosé is Jean-Luc’s homage to this gorgeous part of the world and to the Lady who watches over all who sail here.
Jean-Luc uses the saignee method for this rosé to produce a light and aromatic wine that is matured in stainless steel tanks for up to 5 months before bottling. The nose is bursting with ripe redcurrants, cherries and hints of Mediterranean herbs like thyme and oregano. On the palate there is plenty of mouthwatering freshness, a silky smooth texture and a pure, clean finish which makes this a great aperitif or partner for sushi, grilled fish or fruits de mer.
