Les Cigalières, AOC Tavel, Rosé, 2022

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.

Presentation

Presentation
With this cuvée Maison Sinnae wants to share the diversity of the terroirs present in the Southern Rhône Valley.
These wines are the result of Maison Sinnae's desire to pass on and share the terroir and heritage of the Rhone Valley to future generations.
This cuvée highlights the typicality and the special colour of rosé wines from the Tavel appellation.
Terroir
Cuvée from three terroirs of the appellation: rolled pebbles ("galets roulés"), lauze and terres blanches.
Winemaking
Vinification similar to red wine due to long macerations of 48 to 72 hours. After pressing, low temperature (13°-14°C) fermentation for 10 to 15 days. A blend of free-run juice, which brings out the necessary aromas, fruit, freshness and acidity, and press juice, which preserves its richness, structure and power. This clever blend gives birth to this stylish wine-the 1st rosé wine of France.
