Reviewed May 2024Pale and tender pink in the glass, the 2023 Rosé rushes the mouth with lively, almost spritzy acidity. Generous and tropical in its aromatics and flavors, the mix of tart pineapple, chamomile, white cherry, mint and salty sea spray is particularly enticing. What strikes me most about the 2023 is its balance. The finish is quite long - this is everything I want from Provençal Rosé. (BN)

I always love the rosé from this estate in Aix En Provence. Their 2023 Coteaux D'Aix En Provence Rosé is largely Syrah (40%) yet includes plenty of Grenache, Cinsault, and Counoise. Its medium pink hue is followed by a juicy, lively, medium-bodied, classic Provence rosé offering some dried strawberry and peach fruit, nicely integrated acidity, plenty of texture, and a great finish. It's impeccably made and perfect for summer drinking.

Quiet on the nose, this pale rose wine is like a spring breeze, with aromas of wild flowers, fresh cut grass and white peach. The palate is cool as well with flavors of melon, peach and green apple all balanced by a grapefruit brightness.

The Bargemone Rose always pleases. It is a delightfully fresh take with notes of fresh white peaches with a fine cut of grapefruit. This is provides beautiful structure giving lovely acidity and lift to this wine making it imminently sippable. This is pure pleasure in a glass and the perfect harbinger of summer gatherings to come!
