This pale pink rosé captivates with its enticing aromas of red berries, orange zest, and exotic spices, complemented by delicate floral notes. On the palate, it delivers vibrant acidity and a silky texture, with flavors of white cherry, blood orange, and a touch of wet stone minerality for a crisp, bone-dry finish. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Counoise, this wine is vinified with precision, highlighting balance and finesse. Perfectly paired with seafood, Provencal dishes, or enjoyed on its own, the Cuvée Marina Rosé embodies refined elegance for any occasion.

Process & Profile

La Bargemone Cuv√©e Marina Ros√© is crafted from a blend of 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Syrah, and 28% Counoise, sourced from organically grown vines averaging 26 years of age. To preserve the grapes' natural freshness, harvesting is conducted early in the morning, followed by cold pressing without maceration. The fermentation process occurs over 10 days at a controlled temperature of 59¬∞F, entirely within stainless steel tanks, ensuring a clean and vibrant profile. The wine's pale pink hue, tinged with orange, reflects its terroir—a combination of clay-limestone soils with pebbles, benefiting from the cool microclimate near the Touloubre River. After a meticulous vinification process, the varieties are blended in December and bottled at the estate in January.

The wine finishes with exceptional length, leaving behind refreshing hints of lime-tinged pear and a distinct minerality that enhances its complexity and drinkability.
