Domaine Gavoty, a family-owned estate with a winemaking heritage spanning over 200 years, is situated in the heart of Provence. Currently managed by Roselyne Gavoty, the eighth generation, the estate is dedicated to producing wines that authentically express the Provençal terroir.
- WINEMAKER: Roselyne Gavoty
- FARMING: Practicing organic viticulture; not certified
- VARIETY: Predominantly Grenache and Cinsault, with a minor contribution from Carignan
- TERROIR: The vineyards are located in the Côtes de Provence appellation, characterized by a Mediterranean climate with warm days and cool nights. The soils are a mix of clay and limestone, providing excellent drainage and contributing to the wine's minerality.
-
VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a short maceration period before pressing. The saignée and first-press juices are vinified separately, allowing for precise blending to achieve the desired texture and flavor profile.
-
AGING: Aged on fine lees in stainless steel tanks until the following spring, enhancing complexity and mouthfeel while preserving freshness.
-
TASTING NOTES: Pale coral in color, this rosé offers aromas of fresh strawberry and red cherry. The palate is full yet finishes bone dry, with a citrus note adding to its refreshing character.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal with Mediterranean cuisine, seafood dishes, light salads, or as an aperitif. Its versatility makes it suitable for a variety of dishes, enhancing the dining experience.
