2014 Le Cirque Rose Cotes Catalones.....$13.99
Le Cirque is crafted by the progressive and quality-obsessed Vignerons de Tautavel Vingrau (VTV) cooperative. Aptly named after the vast amphitheater of vineyards stretching north towards Vingrau, the wines represent phenomenal values, and perfectly reflect the rugged, wind-swept terroir in which they are grown. Le Cirque’s rosé is intensely colored, with great freshness and spicy strawberry, watermelon and sage aromas. It is bone dry, and excellent on its own, or paired with charcuterie, seafood, and fruitbased desserts. Grenache Noir, Syrah and Mourvedre from vines averaging 50+ years in age. Stainless steel vinification. 3 hours on the skins and matured on the lees. No malolactic conversion.

Yields just over 3 tons/acre. The Grenache Noir vines average 25- 35 years in age, the Syrah 10-15 years. Direct pressing, with no maceration.
