"It is difficult to define the flavour profile of this delicious wine. Imagine strawberry and apricot with a hint of floral character (rose petal) and a suggestion of spices and you are starting to get close. It is dry but slightly succulent. A very good example of southern French Rosé" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review
"Pristine and delicate, the inviting bouquet shows white flesh nectarine, red apple and dried flower aromas with a hint of oatmeal complexity. It's finely focused and elegantly weighted on the palate, delivering bright fruit flavours backed by crisp acidity, finishing persistent and mouth-watering. Exquisitely light and fabulously appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"The appearance is classic with hues of apricot and orange tea, very bright leading to a bouquet of apple and peach, some quince and mineral along with a whisper of saffron. On the palate - flavours mirror the nose with with moments of yellow plum and fruit spice. Balanced, refreshing and well made with best drinking from today and through 2024" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
The result is an elegant, fragrant, crisp dry rose with a wonderful soft texture.
De Laumont is an authenticity-crafted, delicious, dry, Rosé sourced from carefully selected terroirs in the foothills of the Montagne Noire (Black Mountain range) in Languedoc-Rousillon. Here, Grenache grapes benefit from the Mediterranean climate to reach optimum ripeness. Produced by highly acclaimed oenologist Xavier Roger, renowned for making classic French wines making at an extremely affordable price.
The grapes are harvested at night when the temperature is cool preserve freshness and prevent oxidation and in the wine. As they arrive at the cellar, the grapes are immediately pressed. The pressed juice is put in a CO2 saturated atmosphere to avoid any oxidation. Juices are drawn from the tanks and left to ferment for 15 days at 13-15°C in stainless steel tanks. Ageing for 4 months on fine yeast lees before bottling adds richness and texture.
Food Pairing: Enjoy this wine chilled, as an aperitif or with various tapas, cold cuts, salads, seafood or white meats.
