Tasting Note
Attractive typical bright and translucent Provence pale pink colour. The nose immediately reveals all the elegance of this Miraval Rosé with its superb aromatic bouquet delicately combining fresh fruit, freshly cut currants and roses, seasoned with a zest of lemon. The refinement continues on the palate with an ample, rich and gourmet texture, perfectly balanced by the natural acidity and minerality with saline and limestone notes specific to Miraval which continue in a long finish with mineral saline notes.
Producer
The Château Miraval estate includes over 1800 acres, 2 valleys, a lake and a world-famous recording studio. Over its long history, the estate has been, home to a monastic practice, members of the French court in the 14th century and the musician and composer Jacques Loussier in the 1970s. Today, the estate is where the Pitt and Perrin families produce legendary Rosé wines, combining Famille Perrin’s expertise in winemaking and Pitt Family’s artistic sensitivity. On exceptional clay and limestone terroirs, the vines are planted in protective, stone-walled terraces, at an average of 1200 feet perfect for a soaring balance of harmony and freshness in the wines. There are no herbicides, pesticides or chemicals used.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested exclusively in the morning and sorted twice. Destemming with direct pressing for Cinsault, Grenache and Rolle while Syrah is vinified partially using the «saignee» method to reduce colour transfer. Vinified in temperature - controlled stainless steel vats (95%) and in barrels (5%) with batonnage.
Fun Fact
The Château Miraval estate is tucked away in its own private valley in the ancient village of Correns – the first organic village in France.
Food pairing
A delight with many light dishes including seafood, poultry and salads. It’s also a perfect sipping wine for any elegant occasion.
Awards & Accolades
90 points Wine Spectator
"Pure and chiseled in feel, with racy-edged white cherry, rose petal, jicama and jasmine notes backed by a lingering wet stone accent on the finish. This has length and subtleties that set it apart from the pack."
