This Rosé is fruity, light, fresh, and easy to drink.

Sourced from vineyard with shallow, schist and silty soils, at the foothills of the Massif des Maures on sunny hillside slopes.

Harvested by machine at night. Short skin maceration. Pressing. Thermoregulated alcoholic fermentation. Prevention of malolactic fermentation. Traditional temperature-controlled vinification in stainless steel vats.

Legend has it that Phoenician ships, carried on a steady sea breeze (“brise maritime"), landed on the Mediterranean coast in the 6th century BC. They brought with them the knowledge of vine growing and winemaking. To celebrate the legend, the Estandon winemakers have created this "Brise Maritime" vin de pays and invite you to taste the fruit of their region’s history.

Food Pairing: For everyday meals with friends, enjoy with grilled meat and big summer salads.
