The vineyards Côtes de Provence rosé Château de la Galinière cover 30
hectares at the foot of the plateau Cengle next to Aix-en-Provence, in
the town of Châteauneuf le-Rouge. The soil is poor and shallow, consisting mainly of clay, limestone and bauxite. It is the latter which gives it
its characteristic red color. The vines are on average 15 years old and are
located 300 meters above sea level. Caring for the vines (trellising, budding, leafing, green harvesting…) ensure high quality grapes. Mechanical
harvesting is carried out at night to harvest the grapes in cooler temperatures. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes macerate for a few hours
before being pressed to amplify the aromatic potential. Fermentation in
stainless steel tanks is carried out at a low temperature (14°C). Yield: 55
hectoliters / hectare.
This wine was presented during one of our Weekly Wednesday live tasting by our wine Consultant/Guru aka #thewinehunter.
