2023 M de Minuty Rose, Cotes de Provence

M de Minuty Rosé from Côtes de Provence is a fresh, elegant, and quintessential expression of Provence rosé, crafted by winemaker François Matton at Château Minuty. As one of the region’s most iconic producers, Minuty has been a benchmark for premium rosé wines, focusing on sustainably farmed vineyards and minimal intervention winemaking to highlight the purity and vibrancy of Provence’s terroir.

Pale salmon in color with a luminous, crystalline quality, this rosé opens with delicate aromas of wild strawberry, white peach, and citrus zest, complemented by subtle floral and herbal notes of lavender and thyme. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with flavors of juicy red berries, pink grapefruit, and melon, balanced by bright acidity and a fine mineral texture. A long, dry finish leaves hints of citrus peel and a touch of salinity, making it incredibly moreish.

This wine is a perfect match for seafood dishes such as grilled prawns, oysters, and tuna tartare. It also pairs beautifully with Mediterranean salads, fresh goat cheese, and light Provençal cuisine. Best enjoyed well-chilled, it is an ideal companion for warm afternoons, al fresco dining, and summer gatherings.

M de Minuty Rosé, under the expertise of François Matton, remains a definitive example of the elegance and finesse that have made Provence rosé a worldwide favori
