Domaine De Fontsainte 2023 Gris de Gris Rosé

90% Grenache Gris, 5% Carignan, 5% Mourvèdre

The first vineyards at Domaine de Fontsainte were planted by the Romans. The original domaine was built around a thermal spring, which was later named for the local, 12th-century patron saint, Saint Siméon; hence Fontsainte—the saint’s fount.

Hand-harvested. Gris de Gris style is made by saignée, or "to bleed"- which is to let the juice run off from the tank after initial maceration the skins, and making rose from the resulting juice. Crisp, soft and floral.
