[SOLD-OUT] Domaines Ott Chateau de Selle Rose 2016

Cru Classe of Provence!

"Powerful red berry, orange zest and floral aromas are sharpened by an intense mineral topnote. Shows very good clarity and depth on the palate, offering vibrant strawberry, tangerine and honeysuckle flavors and a hint of bitter peach pit. Finishes very long and floral, with bright mineral cut and a touch of fennel that sneaks in slowly."


Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media, August 2018, 92 Points


 

A subtle balance between structure and finesse, this wine is a perfect illustration of the precision required to make a rosé, the rigorous process that celebrates the flesh of the fruit and the very heart of the grape... The wine is a reflection of the complexity of its limestone hillsides and arid soil; austerity bathed in dazzling sunshine.


The Château de Selle Rosé combines various grape varieties from the Côtes de Provence appellation, including a majority of Grenache creating the delicate colour and vinous character. The Cinsault adds softness and the Syrah and the Mourvèdre bring fruit.This pale pink wine with golden tints releases fragrances of citrus fruit and orchard flowers enveloped in spice. On the palate, the immediate effect is elegant and open, developing subtle aromas with a lemony edge before a sweet finish of appealing length.

Pale in color, this ripe wine is beautifully balanced. It does have rich fruit, raspberries and wild strawberries. It also has a fine texture with plenty of acidity as well as a touch of pepper.
