Named Rosé des Vents in reference to the compass which adorns the label, this delicate rosé is composed of the Cinsault and Grenache grape varieties which are native to the region. The grapes are grown on clay and limestone soils in the Languedoc where the sunny Mediterranean climate produces perfectly ripe grapes of very high quality. In the winery the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks to capture the varietal typicity and purity of the fruit.

The Sieur d’Arques cooperative is located in the Languedoc close to the foothills of the Pyrenees and was founded in 1946 by several local winemaking families. The winery is famous for producing top quality sparkling wines as well as a variety of still red, white and rosé wines from local grape varieties.
