La Mäitresse
Regular price €12,00/
Tax included.
Launched in 2002, La Maîtresse became an instant success flaunting the tasty fruity character of youthful Provencal rosés rather than the somewhat stayed style found in the more traditional regions for sparkling wines.
Traditional method sparkling rosé grown in Provence on the southern-most hills in the back county of the Var.
Rocky and limy clay with southern exposure between 160-200 meters altitude.
Thanks to our altitude and the microclimate of our estate, we enjoy relatively fresh temperatures for Provence which allow us to obtain the natural acidity necessary for the manufacture of sparkling wine.
Grenache, Syrah.
Each parcel is vinified separately; grapes were quickly pressed with early separation of pressed must; tight cold static must settling; temperature control of fermentation at 16-17°C. After fermentation and stabilization, the base wine is bottled for second fermentation.
After minimum 9 months on the lies, the wine is released for sale over the course of the year as it is needed.
Peach color, fine and constant bubble. Nose on notes of red and exotic fruits (currants, cherry, passion fruit), all lightly sprinkled with spices (cinnamon). The palate has a good length, with aromas of red fruits. This sparkling wine has a nice texture and elegant bubbles. The finish combines a nice freshness, with notes of fruit paste and spices.
