Tasting: This flagship estate rosé showcases a delicate pale peach hue with sophisticated aromas of fresh fruits and spices. Brief oak aging contributes remarkable complexity while maintaining vibrant freshness. More structured than typical Provençal offerings, it delivers impressive depth with stone fruit and herb notes underscored by precise minerality and an exceptionally long finish.
Pairing: The wine's elegant structure and complexity make it a sublime match for Ōra King Salmon with a light herb butter sauce, where it complements the fish's delicate richness perfectly. Also exceptional alongside Poulet de Bresse with citrus notes or simply prepared Tiger Prawns finished with premium olive oil and sea salt.
Producer: Château de Berne stands among Provence's most prestigious estates. Nestled in limestone hills near Lorgues, their 175 hectares benefit from elevated altitude and cooler microclimate ideal for elegant rosés. Under Alexis Cornu's guidance, sustainable viticulture and minimal intervention allow their exceptional terroir to speak authentically.
Vintage: 2021 proved exceptional for Provence rosé. Spring frost concentrated flavors while ideal summer conditions preserved delicate aromatics and fresh acidity, yielding wines of remarkable precision and structure that mark 2021 as one of the decade's finest vintages.
ABV: 12.5%
Vol: 75cl
