Located at the foot of Mount St. Victoire near Aix en Provence, owned by Genevieve Quiot, who inherited it her great-grandfather, Aurelien Houchart, and now managed by Florence and Jean-Baptiste Quiot, who represent the 5th generation. A blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, full fruit nose and flavor with a touch floral. Good acidity, overall good value. Tasting Sample.

A delicate, pretty pink; like the colour of crabapple jelly. The primary aroma is floral, orange blossoms with a secondary bouquet of sea minerals as if you were sitting next to the Mediterranean engulfed by a warm sea-breeze. Good acidity that should cut through the oiliness of the barbecued Salmon on the grill. The flavours of rose water, grapefruit and tart strawberries make this an utterly delicious rosé for a hot summer’s day.

Nothing but fun if you turn your brain off, but some real complexity underneath. Honeysuckle and cantaloupe rind are using their indoor voice here. Bright acidity.
