Chateau Ollieux Romanis Rose

Corbières, France

OUT OF STOCK.  Ollieux is no gimmicky rose. This château goes out of its way to make sensational rose that deserves more than a passing strawberry.  Produced in Corbières in southern France, the wine has nuances of wild herbs, raspberries and a hint of pear drops on the nose, red-fruit flavours, sour cherries and mint and white pepper.  Its quite a mouthful in fact.  As for the colour, well think the palest baby pink, chilled down and ready to drink on a hot terrace in San Tropez!

The Bories family practises 100% organic viticulture.  Weed-killer is a thing of the past and chemical fertilisers have been replaced by compost made almost entirely on the vineyard.
