Cote des Roses celebrates the Mediterranean lifestyle. The Languedoc appellation stretches alongside the Mediterranean coast. The soils are highly varied, mainly with hard limestone and schist, but also gravel transported by the rivers of the Languedoc region. The original bottle, with its rose shaped base was created by a young designer from the Ecole Boulle. Cote des roses is a wine to give in the same as a bunch of roses!
Winemaker’s note
To obtain the intensity that characterizes this grape variety, the Sauvignon needs to be picked at a specific time. The grapes are tasted before the harvest and then picked during the night to preserve the freshness of the fruit before being delicately pressed at the winery. During approximately 5 months, about 10 of the wine is vinified in French barrels, while the rest is put into thermo regulated vats at low temperature to preserve the richness and freshness of the aromas. Finally, after a light fining, the wine is bottled quite early in order to preserve the fresh and fruity character of the wines.
Tasting note
This cuvée has a pale golden and crystalline colour. A beautiful roundness on the palate is brought by the terroirs of the South of France, which allow it to develop notes of guava and passion fruit, while its citrus fruit aromas bring a lot of freshness and minerality.
Food and Wine Pairing
Serve at 8 10 C as an aperitif or to accompany grilled fish or seafood.
We found our new favorite poolside sip! La Grande Bleue Méditerranée, an organic wine made with 5 artfully blended grapes, takes us back to this past summer's adventure in Languedoc, France. The crisp taste is perfect to enjoy on what has been an exceptionally hot summer in both Southern California and Southern France! Thank heavens for La Grande Bleue!!
Our family has a tradition of "Laundry Room wine". It is wine of a high caliber that we hide in the laundry room and only tell a select few about. Those who have a discerning appreciation for tasty wines! Blanc Gris quickly became a "laundry room wine' after my husband and I discovered it on our recent vacation to the Languedoc region of France. I brought it to share with my daughter and sister-in-law who greatly appreciated this addition to our Laundry Room Wine List
I love this sparkling wine! I first tasted it on a Carnival Cruise and I have been in love ever since. I do not drink any other alcoholic beverage. I ordered three bottles and will be ordering three more! Order yours today!!! You will not be disapointed!!
I ordered this at a restaurant last summer and finally ordered a few because I couldn't stop thinking about how much I enjoyed it. It Came packaged beautifully!
The wine was smooth yet complex and very satisfying to keep in the mouth for a few swirls. Delightful to know that Gérard Bertrand’s growing methods are sustainable and mindful of taking care of the land.
I am beyond pleased with the wonderful product and amazing service. Shipping was so fast and packaging was strong and secure. So thankful that they shipped my order via UPS. I love the wine. I can’t find this wine in a small town I live close to. Will definitely buy from this company for sure. Highly recommend!
Thank you
I didn’t get what I ordered, I got a sparkling wine instead and I sent an email explaining that and I haven’t received an answer. I want the wine I ordered please.
I can not find this wine locally, but the nearest Costco carries it around Christmas. I think it is the perfect summer wine. It is light and not very sweet; and the bottle is exquisite. I will order again before the summer is over, I am sure.
