Le Bijou de Sophie Valrose Rosé 2025: all the elegance of the Coteaux de Béziers

Le Bijou de Sophie Valrose Rosé 2025 has become one of the Languedoc’s iconic wines thanks to its refined style and unique history. Its name pays tribute to Sophie Valrose, a vineyard worker who has come to symbolise the recognition of women’s work in the Languedoc vineyards. This cuvée is produced in the Coteaux de Béziers, a few kilometres from the Mediterranean, where the clay-alluvial soils and sea breezes encourage the grapes to ripen slowly whilst preserving their natural freshness.

The blend comprises 45 per cent Cinsault, which brings finesse and freshness; 40 per cent Grenache, for roundness and red fruit aromas; 10 per cent Caladoc, a grape variety resulting from a cross between Grenache and Malbec which enhances the colour, structure and floral notes, and 5% Syrah, which adds a subtle spicy touch. The grapes are harvested during the coolest hours of the day to preserve the full aromatic expression of the grapes. The colour is pale pink with salmon-pink highlights. The nose reveals aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, citrus, white flowers and peach. On the palate, the wine charms with its silky texture, lovely freshness and slightly briny finish – a hallmark of terroirs close to the Mediterranean.

Served at between 8 and 10 °C, it pairs perfectly with tapas, grilled fish, seafood, mixed salads, white meats, Mediterranean or Asian cuisine, and fresh cheeses.
