VillaViva is luscious, aromatic nose of raspberries and strawberries. Fresh in the mouth with a well-balanced, full and lively middle palate, and a spicy, lingering finish.\n \n Producer Information\n VillaViva Rosé is located in the Côtes de Thau appellation that faces the Mediterranean Coast in the South of France. It is surrounded by the fishing village of Sète, famous for its oyster bed soils and by famous string of lakes (Etang de Thau) that make up the Thau Bassin. Wine production and commerce in the region date back as early as the 7th century B.C. with Etruscan amphoras found at the bottom of the Thau Bassin. The vineyard is planted on fossilized oyster beds, limestone, gravel and quartz soils and benefits from a sunny and dry climate ideal for rosé production. An elaborate subsoil network of fresh water and salt water conduits under the vineyards nourishes the vines and contributes to the unique flavor of VillaViva. Harvested mid-August to retain all its flavor, it is produced from the free run juice fermented at low temperature. Red fruit and peach aromas on the nose, lengthy finish due to the strength of the Carignan grape, clean and zesty finish. Because of the unbelievable price-to-quality ratio, the rosé wines from the property have been so successful to the point that “it is replacing water” in all of the top restaurants on the French Riviera.
