Domaine Houchart Rose

An enjoyable summery aperitif and elegant social drink. Domaine Houchart Rosé is a drink for sunny food parties, that equally well accompanies appetisers, salads, cold and hot smoked salmon, soufflés, white meat, grilled vegetables and even grilled, lamb chops with herbs.

Domaine Houchart is located in the village of Puyloubier near Aix-en-Provence. After the grapes have been picked, they are covered with carbon dioxide and insulating blankets after to prevent oxidation and heat. Fermentation takes place in very cool steel tanks. To preserve the crispness and freshness of the wine, malolactic fermentation is prevented. The grapes of older vines bring depth and nuances to this wine and the low yield gives intensity. Maturing the wine on top of the lees creates more nuances and acts as an antioxidant, adding freshness. This is a wine made with great care and tastes just like it.
