Mouton Cadet Rosé
2023
A pleasantly fresh rosé marked by fresh red fruit, such as redcurrant and raspberry, and citrus, especially pink grapefruit.
Varietal mix
Tasting notes
A glittering dog-rose pink.
Nose
The nose opens on red fruit aromas, especially strawberry and raspberry, then goes on with airing to develop some pink grapefruit and guava notes.
Palate
From a supple and full attack on pronounced strawberry flavours, the mid-palate offers a delicate mixture of red fruit, such as redcurrant and cherry, and citrus fruit, especially pink grapefruit, leading into a chiselled finish given additional length by an attractive freshness.
The people who make the wine
Pierre Blanc
Flaujagues Mouton Cadet Rosé and Mouton Cadet WhitePierre Blanc tends a 16-hectare vineyard at Flaujagues, beside the Dordogne river in the Côtes de Castillon appellation, where nature and the art of winegrowing come together. The coolness that comes from the river and the morning mist that caresses the vines combine with a unique terroir to give the wines unrivalled freshness, ideal for Sauvignon Blanc. Merlot grapes that contribute to the blend for Mouton Cadet Rosé flourish on his more vigorous vines, more exposed to the sun. Pierre has been a Mouton Cadet partner since 2017. He isn’t only a winegrower, though, because he also has kiwi-fruit orchards and grows cereal crops in an expanding quest for biodiversity to keep ecosystems healthy.
