Rosé d'Anjou is a round and fruity wine, ideal all day long. It is a medium dry wine which can be served with exotic and spicy dishes. The vineyards grow on the hillsides of rivers flowing from the Loire and particularly the Layon. Vinified in the traditional rosé method. The grapes are crushed after a slight maceration, giving a pink color. Fermentation is not allowed to complete, in order to give the wine its subtle sweetness.
95% Grolleau, 5% Cabernet Franc
Wine Enthusiast Review:
Pink-salmon in color, red cherry and pomegranate aromas brush up against rosehip and cranberry on the nose. On the palate the off-dry wine echoes flavors suggested on the nose with additional flavors of honeyed peach. Pair with grilled meats, olives and charcuterie. -R.S.
