How this wine feels
This has a little more texture than a very light rosé. Freshness leads the finish, with gentle grip giving the fruit definition. It feels lively and food-friendly, with enough roundness to balance the citrus.

Behind the bottle
Château Routas grows its rosé fruit in the cooler uplands of northern Provence at around 250–270 metres.
Cool stainless steel fermentation preserves fruit character, with older vines contributing depth and structure.
