Selladore En Provence Rosé 2021, Coteaux Varois En Provence

If you’re a fan of the ever-popular Tyrrells crisps, this wine might just make a perfect pairing. Both are the brainchild of William Chase – creator of Herefordshire’s award-winning Chase Distillery. Suffice to say, that his high standards also apply to this traditional, pale pink Provence rosé. Production is small. So the focus is on ensuring only the finest grapes make the grade. Winemaking is led by Dale Clarke, who honed his skills in his native Australia and at M. Chapoutier, the Rhône Valley’s leading biodynamic producer – an influence that has led William and Dale to convert their winery to organic farming. Come harvest time, grape picking begins at 3am to keep the fruit’s freshness intact. Once crafted, a portion of the blend is left to age on its lees, which adds a creamy texture to this impressive wine. It’s a wonderfully aromatic, bone-dry Provence rosé. Expect plenty of stone-fruit and citrus notes, with standout flavours of peach and grapefruit. It’s silky texture and crisp acidity makes it the perfect choice for goat’s cheese dishes.
