Maison Sinnae, AOC Côtes du Rhône Villages Chusclan, Rosé, 2023

The 2022 vintage was characterised by a very dry winter, with the vegetative cycle of the vines resuming very early in March. Spring saw abundant flowering, but was marked in June by severe hail in and around Laudun, which affected many plots. The summer was very dry, resulting in a high-quality harvest, with beautifully aromatic rosés, reds with high tannin potential and rich, flavoursome whites.

Location
This cuvée comes from the vineyards around the village of Chusclan, in south-east France on the right bank of the Rhône.
Terroir
This cuvée comes from the mid-slope terroirs of Chusclan, with deep, red, well-drained soil. 10 plots from 5 HVE winegrowers are used to make this cuvée.
These plots, 50% Syrah and 50% Grenache, are managed without herbicides and are an average of twenty years old.
Winemaking
Traditional vinification, destemmed harvest, juice from bleeding and cold settling. Fermentation of the Syrah was carried out at 14°C and lasted 3 weeks, allowing maximum fresh fruit aromas to be released. The Syrahs were then left in vats for a week, during which time the lees were stirred to coat the palate and give the wine its smoothness.
The Grenache fermented at 16°C for 2 weeks, releasing notes of white fruit and exotic citrus.
Ageing
Once the Syrah and Grenache grapes had been blended, they remained in vats on their fine lees for over 4 months.
