Costieres Nimes Rosé 2024

Costières de Nîmes is an appellation located in the southern Rhône Valley, France. The vineyards of Château Saint Cyrgues are situated near the historic city of Nîmes, benefiting from a Mediterranean climate with warm, sunny days and cooling Mistral winds, which contribute to the quality and freshness of the wines.

The rosé is typically crafted from a blend of grape varieties common to the Costières de Nîmes appellation, including:

• Grenache
• Syrah
• Mourvèdre

The rosé wine is produced using traditional vinification methods for rosé in the southern Rhône region. Grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and undergo a short maceration period to extract delicate color and aromas. The juice is then fermented at controlled temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. The wine is typically aged briefly in stainless steel tanks to maintain its vibrant character before bottling.
