Château Routas Provence Rosé has freshly cut watermelon, ripe peach aromas and floral notes lead to a palate alive with wild strawberries and hints of mineral notes. Crisp acidity and a refreshing finish.Château Routas rosé is a gourmet, aromatic and balanced wine with a pale pink colour. The nose of white fruits and citrus is intense. The attack, fresh and round, is an invitation to tasting. The rich and silky mouth has a beautiful volume and sweetness and reveals aromas of peach and mandarin. The citrus finish is long and sapid and ends with a saline touch full of tension.The harvest is carried out early in the morning in order to limit the oxidation of aromas and the taking of colour. The vinification is technical, combining pellicular maceration, separation of juices to preserve freshness and cold stalling for more intense aromas. Each parcel and each grape variety is fermented separately with a specific process in order to reveal the diversity of the terroirs of the estate. The wines are aged on fine lees with stirring (bâtonnage) to gain roundness. A meticulous blend reveals a synergy between the grape varietiesChâteau Routas is located in the Var hinterland at an altitude of 250 to 270m, the vineyard benefiting from a cold microclimate in winter and cool nights in summer and is part of the Coteaux Varois en Provence appellation. The cool terroir and the clay-limestone soils allow a slow maturation of the grapes to give balanced wines with a beautiful aromatic freshness. The south-east to south-west exposure allows optimal phenolic maturity.
