Cotes de Provence Rose' AOC Cru Classe' 2022 (750 ml.) Chateau Galoupet
The Cotes de Provence Rosé Cru Classé from Chateau Galoupet is a Mediterranean rosé wine of rare complexity, quality, and great sensitivity. It is made from a blend of grapes sourced from the entire estate, a true terroir wine from vines cultivated using organic farming. Each plot is vinified separately, with aging for 4-5 months, except for 30-40% that matures in French oak barrels. It has an intense powder pink color, a bouquet of irresistible aromas of raspberry, currant, lavender, and Mediterranean scrub, supported by iodine mineral notes. The tasting is bold and quite complex, creamy with good structure, and has a very savory and persistent finish.

THE WINE
The Cotes de Provence Rosé Cru Classé from Chateau Galoupet is a Mediterranean rosé wine of rare complexity, quality, and great sensitivity. It is vinified from a blend of grapes sourced from the entire estate, a true terroir wine from vineyards cultivated under organic farming. The vinification is done parcel by parcel, with aging of 4-5 months, except for 30-40% which matures in French oak barrels. It has an intense powder pink color, with a bouquet of irresistible aromas of raspberry, currant, lavender, and Mediterranean scrub, supported by iodized mineral notes. The tasting is assertive and rather complex, creamy, and well-structured, with a very savory and persistent finish.
THE ESTATE
In the Provençal municipality of La Londe-les-Maures, overlooking the Golden Islands of the French Riviera, lies Chateau Galoupet, a wine estate strongly committed to highlighting the wine-growing territory of Provence while simultaneously protecting the fragile balances of nature. The estate is owned by the renowned French group LVMH, which in 2019 entrusted the leadership to Jessica Julmy, directing the production philosophy towards sustainability. For this purpose, Chateau Galoupet hosts one of only 12 queen bee fertilization stations worldwide and has converted its vineyards to organic farming since 2020. The first wines of this new direction were presented with the 2021 vintage, following 4 years of soil analysis and vineyard preparation. However, the tradition of the Chateau is not so recent, as Chateau Galoupet was already among the 18 Cru Classé de Provence in 1955.
The Chateau Galoupet estate includes 69 hectares of vineyards dedicated to local varieties such as Grenache Noir, Syrah, Tibouren, Rollo, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, Rolle, and Sémillon, each cultivated in a single plot that has features suitable for the specific grape variety. In addition, there are 77 hectares of protected woodland areas that contribute to the exceptional biodiversity of the territory. The soils consist of layers of metamorphic rocks such as quartz, sandstone, and gravel, while the climate is typically Mediterranean, sunny, and windy. Based on these pedoclimatic parameters, the vines are cultivated according to the principles of organic farming, with genuine practices in the fields such as cover cropping and agroforestry. The maturation of the rosés, the core of the Chateau production, takes place in stainless steel tanks and demi-muids of oak. Chateau Galoupet produces rich and complex rosés that are savory and Mediterranean, at the top quality of the category. Furthermore, the wines are packaged in a lightweight bottle made of 70% recycled glass, thus minimizing the environmental impact of the packaging.
