2024 Chateau Minuty Rose et Or

Rose et Or is Château Minuty's top rosé. The Rose et Or is made from the finest grapes with a very small production. The wine is grown and produced entirely organically, so no artificial fertilizers, pesticides, or other chemicals are used. Minuty's Rose et Or uses their groundbreaking method, using only the first juice obtained during the production of their rosé wines. The grapes are heavy enough for a first natural pressing, and this first juice is fermented and used for the top-of-the-line Rose et Or and the Cuvée Prestige (a blend of this juice and the first pressing), giving the rosé its luxurious texture and elegance.

Château Minuty has a fully automated bottling line designed to protect its rosé wines from oxidation and preserve their aromatic qualities. Château Minuty (and especially its Rosé et Or and Cuvée Prestige) ranks among the top houses, such as Ott, MIP, AIX, Miraval, and Domaine Tropez, which have pioneered the production of top-quality rosé wines that are excellent as an aperitif and also pair perfectly with lobster, shellfish, white pasta dishes, or a delicious salad. The quality and maturation are also such that the wines remain delicious with aging (2-3 years).

The wine is a blend of primarily Grenache and a small amount of Syrah. The Minuty Rosé et Or is a very lively rosé with concentrated, greedy flavors. It has an intense freshness, slightly salty/mineral. It is a dry rosé without losing its fruit, which is what distinguishes a top rosé.

The Château Minuty vineyard is situated on the slopes of the villages of Gassin and Ramatuelle, overlooking the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Harvesting is carried out entirely by hand, with an almost extraordinary perfection. Only the finest grapes are allowed in this vinification, and therefore the first selection is made in the vineyards. Afterward, the grapes are individually inspected in the winery, and only the very best are allowed in the Rosé et Or vinification.
