Williams Chase en Provence jolie rose

Grapes for the cuvée ‘Jolie’ (‘Pretty One’) herald from a small parcel of 45-year-old Côtes de Provence classified vines at Domaine Chase. Syrah and Cinsault grapes are hand-harvested in the early hours of the morning, pressed and then allowed a very short period of skin contact. 60% of the blend is fermented in new Burgundy barrels and the remaining 40% undergoes traditional fermentation in stainless steel. Controlled malolactic fermentation enhances the complexity of the wine both in flavour and texture. Bottling takes place after 10 months of ageing on-site at the Domaine.
