A pale pink in colour, this Piquepoul rosé has a delicate nose of cherry blossom, strawberries and peaches.

The palate is wonderfully fresh with summer berry flavours and notes of crushed rose petals. The fruity notes are balanced perfectly with a lively, citrus acidity leaving the palate refreshed.

In the Press

Recently reviewed by Natalie Earl on Decanter.com it scored 87 points

"Extremely pale pink, almost not there. The nose is restrained and mild with suggestions of grapfruit, peach, lemon and rose. The palate is bracing and tangy. There is appeal here, and it's screaming out for seafood - tiger prawns or dressed crab."

Les Vignobles Foncalieu

Established in 1967 by Maurice Grignon, the family winemaking and trading company originally specialised in the production and sale of wine-making materials. Then in 1992, the company was sold and became an Association of Cooperatives and started producing wines from Languedoc- Roussillon.

In 1996, the company made significant investments into modern equipment, improved storage and now specialises in the production of high quality wines. The name Foncalieu is made up of letters of villages in the region of l`Aude - Fonties de Aude, Capendu - ALzonne - Montolieu.

Languedoc-Roussillon

The Languedoc is a vast region stretching across much of the south and Mediterranean and is France`s single largest vineyard entity for its Vins de Pays wines.

Within the Languedoc lie several distinctly identified Vins de Pays (including the l`Aude, Gard and Hérault) and many generic appellations that maintain traditional local blends and wine styles such as Minervois, Corbières, Pic Saint Loup and Fitou.
