Description
Les Jamelles Cinsault rosé is celebrated for its fruit, freshness and candy notes.The grapes used to craft this Cinsault are sourced from three terroirs: those along the coastal region near Béziers, where the hot climate and proximity to the sea lend roundness and freshness, while the grapes from the Herault Valley’s mid-slope vineyards add richness, and finally those from the environs of Narbonne give opulence to the blend.

This is pure fruitiness but with a tense, tight structure underneath.The fresh exterior is all citrus fruits and acidity, while behind lies a texture that demands aging. It’s impressive, rich and worth waiting for. Drink from 2018.

Solidly built, with lemon pulp and grapefruit rind notes framing a rich core of creamed yellow apple and white peach. Nice minerality drives the finish. Barrel Sample: 90-93 Points

Another full-throttle 2012 dry white, this 2012 offers lots of honeysuckle notes as well as a full-bodied mouthfeel and beautiful purity, elegance and length. Lemon zest, grapefruit and subtle wood characteristics are found in both the aromatic and flavor profiles. Barrel Sample: 90-92 Points
