Bouquet the first nose presents notes of fresh red fruit such as raspberry, redcurrant and wild strawberry. With aeration, the wine reveals more subtle fruity notes of sour cherry and blood orange, as well as light spicy notes of white pepper and ginger, wrapped in notes of buttered brioche. |

Flavour the wine is silky and well-defined on entry. Fruity aromas dominate the bouquet, with wild strawberry and candied orange peel highlighting some lovely tart, bitter notes. These enhance the length and persistence of the finish. |

BEHIND THE LABEL
The genesis : encouraged by his customers, Claude’s grandfather, Henri Mandois, was one of the early pioneers of this now classic style.
The vision : the Mandois style departs from the traditional pure saignée rosé by combining a saignée rosé with a rosé obtained by blending. The saignée component, extracted during the maceration, creates a fresh and delicate fruity character. Meanwhile, the red wine from the same maceration is used to adjust the final colour. The dosage enhances the fruit expression, while the influence of the oak and the long ageing create a harmonious balance between roundness and freshness.
The Cellar Master’s comments : of all the phases of the harvest, the vinification of red wine remains one of the most delicate. The ripening of the grapes is carefully monitored to ensure the best possible raw material. Once maceration begins, the juice is regularly tasted as flavours can evolve quickly. The duration of the maceration and the timing of the saignée are adjusted each year, making each vintage unique.
