Diamarine Rose

Diamarine, a Coteaux Varois en Provence, is a blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah.

Grown on schist-based soils on the Massif des Maures (Plateau of the Moors), an isolated and largely undeveloped region largely consisting of dense forested ridges of stone pine, chestnut, holly and cork oak. Wild boars frequent the area for acorns and chestnuts, snuffling through the undergrowth of lavender, rosemary, myrtle, broom and boxwood, and horned owls soar through the forests, while endemic snakes, lizards and rare tortoises live among the caves and crevasses.

The wine is bright and clean, with a subtle nose of strawberry, and a lingering finish. A great example of Provence Rose- perfect summertime wine!
