The M de Minuty is a beautiful fresh rosé. A very strict selection takes place (2 x in the vineyard and on the selection tables) of the grapes that come from the best part of the "Côtes de Provence". This rosé is a blend of the typical Provence rose grapes, namely de: Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah. The picking takes place in the very early morning, after which the grapes are stored refrigerated (so that fermentation does not start too early). At the Chateau, the grapes are pressed immediately and then fermentation takes place at a very low temperature .Chateau Minuty has a fully automatic bottling line designed to protect the rosé wines against oxidation and to respect their aromatic qualities.The color of this rose is, as a Provence rose should be, very light and clear. its intense aromas ranging from spicy berries to notes of tropical fruit.In the nose we smell beautiful notes of red currant and orange zest.In the mouth, the M de Minuty is polished, fresh with a very pleasant acidity.
This is a beautiful rose but in short this is also a rose from Chateau Minuty . It is a perfect terrace wine, but it is also excellent gastronomically with salads, shrimps, kebabs, spicy food and apricots. What about olives, tapas, dips, crackers, wasabi peas and vegetable chips. It goes like a treat
with summer salads such as a classic tomato and mozzarella or salad niçoise. Seafood, including shellfish and shrimp.

Chateau Minuty is a classic domain from Provence. It is located on the peninsula of Saint-Tropez. Minuty owes its name to the style of the wines and the flawless regularity. The domain works according to simple principles: The vines are grown according to rational cultivation, without weed killers or pesticides. This protected, wooded environment guarantees a privileged ecosystem. The fruit is preserved during extraction to preserve the rich expression of the region.
A renowned Provence winemaker, Château Minuty has been around since 1850, but when it was taken over by Gabriel Farnet (grandfather of the current owners) in 1936, it quickly became recognized as one of Provence's benchmark winemakers. Today Jean-Etienne and François manage the estate and have taken the focus on quality even further by reducing yields, building a new winery, replanting their Carignan and Ugni-Blanc with grenache noir and Vermentino and pioneering the use of the first juice released in the production of their rosé wines. The weight of the grapes is enough to get a first natural pressing and this first juice is fermented and used for the top model the Rose et Or and the Cuvee (a mix of this juice and the first pressing) and gives the rosé wine the luscious texture and elegance. While 70% of the production is rosé wine, there are also some excellent whites and a rich, silky red. All Chateau Minuty wines are very serious, complex wines that are perfectly suited to Provencal cuisine and are a permanent fixture on the most prestigious wine lists of the Côte d'Azur.
