Gerard Bertrand Clos du Temple Rosé 2022
Clos du Temple is a very pale and glittering rosé. Its nose reveals notes of ripe fruit (apricot, white peach), floral notes of rose and spicy green pepper aromas. On the palate, we find the same scents, with a delicate finish of blond tobacco.
Grape Composition: Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault, Viognier, Mourvedre

| A weighty, modern-styled version, with white peach, zesty citrus and tropical fruit encased in sweet oak spices and mineral depth. Round and long on the creamy palate, with tangerine-laced acidity driving energy while vanilla adds warmth. Built to age, this wine's oak influence will integrate with time in bottle, so don't be afraid to cellar this. Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Viognier and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2027. 3,500 cases made, 750 cases imported. |

| A perfumed nose of spiced apples, pears, melon, dried thyme, potpourri and some bark. It’s medium- to full-bodied with velvety texture and bright acidity. It’s harmonious and vibrant with volume. Ample and slightly peppery bringing vitality and length towards the focused, mineral, long finish. Cinsault, grenache, syrah, mourvedre and a touch of viognier. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold. |
