Region

The Coteaux d`Enserune is a small zone of the Hérault department of Languedoc, which is entitled to Vin de Pays status. It runs south of Beziers to the Mediterranean coast.

Producer

Owned by Louis Fabre, this excellent estate near Beziers, in the southern Languedoc, benefits from the Meditarranean climate. Recent investment, cold fermentation and good vinification produce aromatic and spicy wines with remarkable finesse.

Tasting (Long)

Produced from a small estate near Beziers in the Languedoc, this is a delicate salmon pink rosé made by the `saignée` method of bleeding the fermenting juice from the skins, to preserve the fruit flavours and aroma. It is a dry with a perfumed bouquet of summer fruits, vibrant fruit on the palate and crisp acidity.
