Winemaker Notes
M de Minuty is the quintessential Co^tes de Provence rosé, a style that Chateau Minuty defined, and is the reason behind their success as the world's top producer of premium rosé. Fresh, lively and perfectly balanced, fantastic quality, a glass in hand transports you to the seaside and the French riviera lifestyle, watching the sea and the sky, surrounding yourself with friends and family, and enjoying life to the fullest.
Sourced primarily from a selection of the best Côtes de Provence wines, through long-term contracts (a majority in hand-picked grape purchases).
Blend: 50% Grenache, 20% Cinsault, 20% Syrah, 10% Tibouren
Critical Acclaim
The Matton-Farnet brothers, Jean-Etienne and François, have managed their family estate since the 1990s, blending this wine from estate and purchased fruit. It feels substantive from the get-go, its core of dark flavor distant at first, slowly coming into focus along its structured length. With air, stemmy savor gives complexity to the cherry notes. The wine is airy and open, though, a faint sweetness making it all the more quaffable—that expansiveness brought my mind to a pâtisserie window, electric-red macerated berries perched atop puffy layers of pastry dough.
An inviting nose of rose petal, green strawberry and nutmeg. Medium-bodied with a silky smooth texture. Nicely flavorful and crisp with easy balance. 50% grenache, 20% cinsault, 20% syrah, 10% tibouren. Drink now.
