Nestled in the heart of the garrigue with the backdrop of an unmistakably Mediterranean hillside, the vineyards of Château d’Aqueria extend across the appellations of Tavel and Lirac.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChâteau d’Aqueria has been making wines in Tavel since the end of the 16th century, when monks from the Abbey of Villeneuve-les-Avignon transferred a large tract of land to the Count of Aqueria. Today, the property is under the ownership of Guigal, but is being kept very separate from the parent team in Ampuis. Great investment has been made  and a new state-of-the-art winery has been built. Grapes of exceptional quality from such a noble terroir allow Château d’Aqueria to craft a quintessential Tavel, widely appreciated as the finest wine of its appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"chateau-d-aqueria-tavel-rose","title":"Château d'Aqueria Tavel Rosé 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Château d'Aqueria Tavel Rosé is produced from a blend of Grenache Noir, Syrah, Clairette, Mourvèdre, Bourboulenc and Cinsault grapes. At the winery, the grapes are meticulously destemmed and cooled before vatting. Then they are blended in pairs during 12-24 hours maceration to enhance the aromatic complexity. Once the perfect colour is obtained, the vat is bled and the pomace undergoes a slow pressing before being incorporated with the free-run juice. The juice then undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation for 15 days. This wine sees no malolactic fermentation and no oak contact. The final blend takes place in December before bottling. The intense pink colour is characteristic of a great Tavel. Aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry and pomegranate share the glass with peppery notes. The palate is flavoursome and long with remarkable freshness bringing a lovely balance to the wine. A gastronomic rosé that pairs with every part of the meal from aperitif through to dessert.
