Chateau d'Or et de Gueules 'Les Cimels' Rose Organic 2022, France

Chateau d'Or et de Gueules 'Les Cimels' Rose Organic 2022, France

A blend of Cinsault and Mourvedre this is as close to a classic Provence Rose as you can get without actually coming from Provence. Well, the estate is just over the border. Zingy and citrus with a warm savoury spiciness.

Another brilliant wine from Rockstar female winemaker Diane. Rose lovers will not be disappointed with this classic Provencal style pour from the Pays d'Oc. It's so good it's even vegan too.

Diane and Mathieu’s estate borders the Languedoc and the southern Rhône (and also Provence) so some wines feel very Occitane, others very Rhône-y. For example her pure expression of Grenache (Castel Nou) is a homage to Chateauneuf du Pâpe, whilst ‘Les Cimels’ red has more of a Languedoc feel. ‘Les Cimels’ Rosé could be from Provence. Les Cimels Red was the very first wine we brought to the UK, and which inspired us to set up The Real Wine Company. The 2001 vintage. I have kept a bottle for posterity (long since empty of wine, of course). Diane had taken over a failing estate which was over-producing huge quantities of dilute, boring wines which were helping to fill the EU Wine Lake. Diane set about restoring these beautiful old vineyards to restrict the quantities and improve the quality in direct inverse proportion. First of all, they got the quality right, then they got on with conversion to organic and bio-dynamic status which all the wines now are. The château name comes from the family crest which is Gold and Red.
