Château Vignelaure La Source Rosé 2025 – The expression of an organic Provençal terroir

La Source de Vignelaure Rosé 2025 is one of the signature wines in Château Vignelaure’s La Source range. This organic rosé bears the AOC Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence designation and exemplifies the fresh, elegant style sought by the estate.

The blend is based on four grape varieties: Grenache Noir (40 per cent), Cinsault (30 per cent), Syrah (20 per cent) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10 per cent). This combination produces a well-balanced rosé that is fruity, fresh and has a lovely length on the palate. The plots selected for this cuvée are planted on very stony clay-limestone soils and yield an average of 45 hl/ha.

Visually, the wine has a pale salmon colour with purplish highlights. The nose is intense and precise, dominated by citrus fruits and pink pomelo. The palate confirms this impression of freshness with a particularly pleasant balance. The finish lingers with delicate notes of vine peach, adding a fruity and indulgent touch to the whole.

Vinification is carried out by direct pressing. The juice is immediately cooled and then cold-settled for 48 hours. Slow fermentation in stainless steel vats takes place at a controlled temperature of around 17 °C. The wine is then aged for three months on fine lees with regular stirring, before bottling.

At the table, this Provence rosé offers a wealth of pairing possibilities. Château Vignelaure particularly recommends it with squid, red mullet fillet, anchoïade and seasonal vegetables. It is also excellent with grilled meats, mixed salads, fish and Mediterranean cuisine.
