Domaine des Dieux
Domaine des Dieux produces a small range of award winning premium quality wines. These wines are produced with the same fundamentals as the great French and European wines thus we encourage all our wines to be cellar aged in order for them to reach their full potential. The farm was bought in 2002 by two wine lovers with a dream. A combination of good quality grapes much patience and a love of champagne set the stage for Domaine des Dieux to officially become the first producer of MCC in the Hemel en Aarde region. The dream had become a reality.
Description
This typical Provence style rosé is a classic blend of 50% Mourvedre, 33% Grenache and 17% Syrah. The nose delivers beautiful aromas of Turkish delight, strawberry and rose petal together with a hint of smoked salmon and dried apricot. These delicate flavours follow through on the palate and maintains a full flavour profile through out. Gentle ageing in wood lends a subtle structure to the wine on the mid palate which leads to a crisp dry finish. Lightly pressed and minimal skin contact shows a elegant salmon pink colour in this wine.
Food Pairing
A versatile, dry rose with enough fruit to be enjoyed by itself, but also firm enough to pair with a bistro lunch or a summers evening dinner.
