Domaine du Tariquet Côtes De Gascogne Rosé De Pressée 2021

Domaine Tariquet, located in Gascony in the South-West of France near the Pyrenees Mountains, has been owned by the Grassa family since 1912. As a quality driven wine-grower, all of their wines are produced exclusively from grapes grown on the family’s vineyards. From the vines to the bottling, the Grassa family master every step of the production process, preserving the grapes’ freshness and aromatic potential. The Grassa family has been sustainably managing their vineyards for over 20 years. Concerned about protecting the environment, the estate is certified ISO 14001 and HVE (High Environmental Value). 

Situated in the heart of Gascony, between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees Mountains, Domaine Tariquet benefits from the mild influence of an oceanic climate. A strong temperature amplitude between summer days and nights produces ripe grapes with thick skins full of freshness and fruit. A mosaic of soils with clay-limestone and “boulbène”(silica, clay, sand) enhanced by ochre-colored sand known as “sables fauves”, deep and draining, perfect for white varietals.   

This crisp, clean, dry yet fruity wine strikes a good balance between citrus fruit acidity and fresh ripe red-berry fruits. Refreshing and zesty, this has an exquisite bouquet, both elegant and intense. Mild spicy notes lead to a delightful duo of wild raspberry, pomegranate and flower petal notes in the mouth. Full and fresh on the palate.
