WINE DESCRIPTION
Brotte Côtes du Rhône Esprit Barville Rosé is a delightful wine produced by Maison Brotte, a renowned winery in the Rhône Valley. This wine is made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault grapes grown in the sun-drenched vineyards of the Côtes du Rhône appellation. The vineyards are characterized by their stony soils and gentle slopes, which provide ideal growing conditions for the grapes. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of the best grapes, followed by a gentle pressing and fermentation at low temperatures to preserve the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. The resulting wine is a beautiful pale pink color with fresh and fruity aromas of strawberries and raspberries. On the palate, it is crisp, refreshing, and well-balanced, with a long and satisfying finish. This wine is perfect for any occasion, whether enjoyed on its own or paired with light dishes such as salads, seafood, or grilled vegetables.

ORIGINS
Winery: Brotte
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
