Product Description
Côte des Roses celebrates the Mediterranean lifestyle. The Languedoc appellation stretches along the Mediterranean coast from the Spanish border as far as the city of Nîmes, along the foothills of the Montagne Noire and the Cévennes. The soils are highly varied, mainly with hard limestone and schist, but also gravel transported by the rivers of the Languedoc region.
The robe shows a soft, pale, brilliant pink with bluish tints developing over time towards more orangey nuances. The bouquet releases aromas of summer fruits, cassis and redcurrant Floral notes of rose along with hints of grapefruit complete the picture. On the palate the impression is fresh and full, with great aromatic persistence and balance The finish is fresh, offering notes of candy.
This Languedoc is ideal as an aperitif or with shellfish and subtly spiced dishes.

DecanterThe Cote des Roses collection from Gérard Bertrand’s estate was named as a nod to the Roses Coast, a beach near the Mediterranean. This wine comes in a striking bottle with a rose motif moulded into the bottom of the bottle. Pale pink/salmon colour. A light, refreshing, and primary rosé, showcasing bright red fruits (watermelon and cranberries) plus pink grapefruit on the palate.
Rose wine, also known as rosé, is a type of wine that is made from red wine grapes. Unlike red wine, which is made by fermenting the juice of red grapes with the skins, rose wine is made by fermenting the juice of red grapes with the skins for a short period of time, typically just a few hours. This limited exposure to the skins gives the wine its characteristic pink color, as well as a lighter body and flavor profile than red wine. Rose wine can range in color from light pink to a deep, salmon hue and can be dry or sweet, depending on the winemaking style.
