A Fresh French Rosé to Brighten Your Table
Bonjour! Ready to be transported to the sunlit vineyards of Bordeaux? Let’s uncork a bottle that captures the carefree charm of a French summer.
The Story Behind the Bottle
Château Cazette is nestled in the heart of Bordeaux, where rolling hills and gentle breezes create the perfect setting for expressive, elegant wines. This family-run estate has been lovingly cultivating vines for generations, guided by a deep respect for tradition and the rhythms of nature. Their philosophy is simple: let the terroir speak and craft wines that bring joy to every glass.
For the 2023 vintage, the team at Château Cazette leaned into the character of the season—balancing warm days and cool nights to coax out vibrant fruit and crisp acidity. The blend is classic Bordeaux: Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with a touch of Cabernet Franc, harvested at peak freshness. Each grape is gently pressed to preserve delicate aromas, resulting in a rosé that’s as pretty in the glass as it is lively on the palate.
What You’ll Discover
Pour yourself a glass and admire its pale salmon hue, shimmering with a hint of coral. The nose reveals a bouquet of wild strawberries, white peaches, and a whisper of rose petals. On the palate? Expect a burst of juicy red berries, subtle citrus, and a refreshing mineral streak. The finish? Clean, crisp, and delightfully dry—inviting you back for another sip.
Perfect Pairings
Think summer salads with goat cheese, grilled prawns, or a classic Niçoise. It’s equally magnificent with charcuterie, Provençal vegetables, or just a crusty baguette and good company. Reach for this rosé at picnics, sunny lunches, or whenever you want a taste of French joie de vivre.
