De Boel France 'je vous Adore' Rosé 2023 (750 ml)

The ‘Je Vous Adore’ Rosé comes from a small plot of vines planted within the Vaucluse region of the Southern Rhone. A forty-year-old vineyard of Caladoc (a cross between Malbec and Grenache) was hand-harvested and then directly pressed from whole clusters for a natural fermentation in stainless steel vats.  In the early spring, the wine is bottled and has a gorgeous pale pink color, and shoots forth brilliant aromas of young strawberries, white flowers, and mineral. The mouth feel is balanced and shows bright grapefruit, white-fleshed fruit, a touch of saltiness, and a kiss of lavender.

Famille de Boel France is a small family estate owned and run by an enthusiastci and inspired husband/wife team in the high elevations of Saint Joseph. This is a project born from passion, not born from inheriting vineyards or a cellar. Nelly France is from Brittany (France), Arnaud De Boel is from Belgium, and they met in 2009 in New Zealand where their love for food and wine brought them together and quickly found a love for one another. With their two young children Augustin and Margot, the family chooses biodynamic farming and winemaking, and owns vineyards in the Northern Rhone where they live (in Saint Joseph and Cornas), and some land in the Southern Rhone close to the villages of Suze-la-Rousse and Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes. They are completely dedicated to the celebration of how food and wine come together in so many magical occasions, and strive to make wine that is meant for the table, meant to enjoy with friends and family, and meant for all of the Bon Vivants of the world; something they can pass on hopefully for generations to come.
