Earthy, spicy, fresh
The cooperative cellar of the winegrowers of Castelas was created in 1952 when a handful of winegrowers combine efforts to develop the wines of the Cotes du Rhone, Cotes du Rhone Villages Signargues, AOP Tavel and IGP du Gard. The cellar's vineyards covers 450 hectares mainly in Cotes du Rhone with a combined 45 families of cooperative winegrowers.
A blend of Grenache (70%), Syrah (20%) and Cinsault (10%).
Pale-salmon in colour it suggests earth and white pepper, garrigue and tart red berries along with dried purple floral aromas. It's a dry pink with good acidity and structure. Food friendly and harmonious, it has a medium-length finish.
