Where Rosé Dreams Are Made in Côtes De Provence
Where rosé dreams are made in the Côtes de Provence with the partnership of @edmondderothschildheritage & @chateauroubine
Amistà raises a glass to friendship (Amistà means friendship in Occitan) and exceptional quality. Under the leadership of Ariane de Rothschild and Valérie Rousselle, this exquisite creation embodies the essence of a life well-lived and exceptional terroir.
Carefully managed sustainable practices & selected from the cru-classed vineyards of Château Roubine, blend of predominantly Grenache with Cindault, Mourvedre & Tibouren.
Amistà Rosé 2023
The quintessential style of rosé, a Provence rosé is distinguishable by its very pretty light salmon pink, shading towards orange. But do not dismiss it as a frail wine, au contraire… it bursts with aromas of pink grapefruit and lemon with rose water, violets; wild strawberry, white peach and minerals.
The first sip coats your mouth with its creamy texture and just shy medium body thanks to the ripe sunkissed from the sunshine coast. A dry style rosé, big & rich yet subtly so refreshing splash of citrus followed by the fruity hello sensation of the aromas along with red raspberry, watermelon and dried herbs. The floral notes come to the forefront near the finish with a black currant leaf; slight bitter lemon peel and saline minerality. It has a nice momentum from the first sip to the lingering finish. It’s delicate yet expressive sophisticated and highly drinkable wine.
The pairing possibilities are endless thanks to the bright acidity & style… classic Mediterranean dishes - soulful bouillabaisse (traditional seafood stew) with a saffron aïoli, a tuna niçoise pasta salad, or tomato and basil tart.
