ROSE Summer 2018-2019
- PROVENCE CRU CLASSE Provence is the only area outside of Bordeaux that classifies its estates (everywhere else it s the vineyards). In 1955 the Provence Cru Classé system was established, this was well before the area was given formal appellation status (1975). Today there are 18 Crus Classés, which represent the crème of the region. Provence rosé at its best! Sainte Marguerite Symphonie Côtes de Provence Cru Classé 2017 $46.00 Arguably our best rosé this year, this extremely small production reserve cuvée is all class. Elegance, finesse and subtle persistence, in a league of its own. Brégançon Côtes de Provence La Réserve 2017 $37.00 An expressive nose of citrus fruits, red berries and exotic fruits, its mouth is silky and elegant. A stunning wine that redefines how good rosé can be. Roubine Côtes de Provence Cru Classé 2017 $36.00 This bright, sunny, salmon-coloured beauty is an elegantly crisp and wellbalanced Côtes de Provence rosé. If you ever get the chance, don t miss an opportunity to visit Château Roubine. Sainte Marguerite Côtes de Provence Cru Classé 2017 $36.00 The flagship wine of the Fayard family and benchmark for all other Cru Classés. A beautiful crisp mineral driven style with good weight and texture. www.mvauron.co.nz Maison Vauron, 5 McColl St, Newmarket - PO Box 8471 Symonds St, Auckland 1150 / t: 09 529 0157 / f: 09 5249187
PROVENCE PREMIUM Provence is the world s largest wine region specialising in dry rosé. Of 27,000 hectares of vineyard in Provence, 88% is used to produce rosé. The consumption of this blushing wine has tripled since the nineties with France being the largest producer of rosé in the world, and Provence alone producing an impressive half of this annual quantity! Tour de l Évêque Pétale de Rose $39.00 The most pale of onion skin colours, complex, dry and lingering. Régine Sumeire of Tour de l Évêque is making extraordinary wines, so it s not surprising to see this wine gracing the tables of the elite in St-Tropez, Nice and Monaco. Hermitage Saint-Martin $35.00 Clear and bright, with complex notes of citrus and white flowers. The palate is ample, elegant, fruity and mineral. One of our favourites, the estate of Enzo Fayard is situated on the most breathtakingly beautiful area on the border of the Cuers valley. Bravo Enzo! Tour du Bon Bandol 2017 $44.00 On the terraced slopes surrounding the small fishing town of Bandol the Mourvèdre grape thrives. It makes big, bruising reds but also one of the worlds most sought after rosés. Don t be fooled by the pale colour, this is a mouthfilling rosé with a bone dry, tannic finish.
PROVENCE Provence is famous for its pale, elegant, floral, bone-dry rosés - beautiful both to taste and to look at. Colours range from a barely there tint known as onion skin through to a golden salmon. Very versatile with a wide range of foods and equally lovely as an apéritif. Villa Aix Côteaux d Aix-en-Provence 2017 $23.00 The second largest AOC in Provence, Côteaux d Aix is surrounding the town of Aix-en-Provence. The limestone and clay soils give wonderfully fresh, fruity and mineral driven rosés. R de Roubine $22.00 Another hit from the team at Château Roubine. Very pale, as if it has just been gently kissed with colour. Subtle flavours and aromas make this dangerously drinkable. Listel Sable de Camargue 2017 $18.00 THE #1 SELLING ROSE IN FRANCE! Also from the the worlds largest organic vineyard, the sandy soils of the Carmargue. A pretty, pale pink. Light and dry, almost too quaffable. Mimi $28.00 A Grenache/Cinsault/Syrah blend that puts you right up there in business class. Pretty red berry fruits with citrus and mineral notes, very refreshing. Castel des Maures $21.50 From the slopes of the Massif des Maures north of Hyères, in the heart of Provence. This wine is dry and fruity, lingering on your taste buds long after finishing. You will be left wanting more.
Paris $22.50 Fresh summer fruits on a blue sky day, exactly what you expect from Provence. A whiff of wild strawberries and lovely balance make this a crowd favourite. Billette $20.00 Many unique bottle shapes come out of Provence and this one stands out. Its backed up by a wine that is pure Provence pale, light, mineral, crisp and dry. Le Paradou $29.50 The brothers at Château Pesquié have done it again. They ve scoured Provence for the best possible fruit and have produced an absolute standout. No doubts this will be our first rosé to sell out. Houchart Sainte Victoire $24.50 The barren, rocky slopes and poor soils of the countryside between Aix and Nice are the ideal conditions for making dry, mineral driven rosés. Subtle floral red fruits with great texture and a fresh finish. Roubine La Vie en Rose $27.00 Made from the Provençal grape variety Tibouren, the aromas and flavours echo the garrigue covered slopes of the hills surrounding Cru Classé Château Roubine. www.mvauron.co.nz Maison Vauron, 5 McColl St, Newmarket - PO Box 8471 Symonds St, Auckland 1150 / t: 09 529 0157 / f: 09 5249187
HAUTE PROVENCE Mourgues du Grès Galets Rosés Costières de Nîmes 2017 $23.00 Strawberry, red currant and raspberry with a peppery touch. Lots of depth and great aromatic persistence. A favourite of US wine critic Robert Parker. What better recommendation can you get. Prieuré de Montézargues Tavel 2017 $34.00 Tavel looks directly across the Rhône river towards the famous red wine appellation of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Dark coloured with impressive weight and depth, these rosés are very food friendly and are often referred to as the King of rosés. LANGUEDOC txt Le Paradou Cinsault Rosé 2017 $18.00 This 100% cinsault rosé is classic - light, fruity and easy to drink. It is the brainchild of brothers Alexandre & Frédéric Chaudière from iconic Côtes-du-Ventoux producer Château Pesquié. Lascaux Côteaux du Languedoc 2017 $25.50 In the limestone hills north of Montpellier, the temperatures are a little cooler, which brings subtlety to the wines. Jean-Benoit has used this to his advantage, a rosé with great depth and a gorgeous bone dry finish. La Negly La Natice Côteaux du Languedoc la Clape 2017 $32.00 The rock star team at Château Negly produce some of the best wines in the Languedoc. With this in mind La Natice is a bargain, a real beauty that picks up a saline like minerality on the gorgeous finish.
CORSE BORDEAUX Fazi Corsica 2017 $19.00 Corsica in the middle of the Mediterranean might not want to be French but French it is. The highly aromatic local grape Sciaccarellu is the base, giving restrained fruit and spice aromas, and a finish that leaves you wanting more. Clos Cantenac Lexuberance Bordeaux 2017 $39.00 From the highly acclaimed St-Emilion Grand Cru Clos Cantenac, is a merlot dominant rosé that transcends the norm. Red summer berry fruit flavours marry with subtle notes of vanilla and caramel on the long silky finish. SOUTH WEST LOIRE Tariquet Marselan Rosé 2017 $20.00 Marselan? Grape students will know this is a cross between Cabernet and Grenache. Highly aromatic, a flavourful rose that has refreshing acidity and spicy finish. Fesles Rosé d Anjou 2017 $21.00 The Loire valley rosés from Anjou have an enormous following. Made from 70% Grolleau and 30% Gamay in an off-dry style. This has great texture in the mouth with abundant bright red fruits and a finish that just keeps on and on. www.mvauron.co.nz Maison Vauron, 5 McColl St, Newmarket - PO Box 8471 Symonds St, Auckland 1150 / t: 09 529 0157 / f: 09 5249187
