Domaines Ott Château Romassan Bandol Rosé 2023 13% 750ML
TASTING NOTES
APPEARANCE
The wine reveals a beautiful peach hue, reminiscent of rose gold.
AROMA
The nose is enveloping with aromas of candied citrus, evolving towards lemon verbena leaves.
PALATE
On the palate, the wine is clean and reveals notes of red fruits-strawberries and raspberries. The mid palate is tight, fresh and very harmonious. The wine is delicious, right up to the finel balanced finish, perfumed with a hint of pomelo.
REGION NOTES
The 90 hectares of vineyards are split between the AOC’s eight communes and planted on marl and limestone soils that are particularly well suited to Mourvèdre. They are composed of two main climates. The grapes grown in the valley offer fresh, crunchy juice whereas those grown at higher altitudes on the terraced hillsides produce wines with more body and structure.
VINTAGE NOTES
The 2023 harvest took place in three phases. During the dormant season, between October and March, there was not enough water to replenish the vines. The arrival of heavy rains in May and June was a gift from nature as the vineyards were flowering. July brought a sharp rise in temperatures, before a brief period of cool weather in early August. This brief respite was then followed by an unprecedented heatwave for this time of year.
GRAPE VARIETY
50% Mourvèdre, 30% Cinsault, 20% Grenache
