Domaine de Frégate 2018 AOC Bandol Rosé is a refined and expressive rosé that embodies the essence of the Bandol region in Provence. With a delicate, pale salmon-pink colour and a seductive nose of red fruit such as strawberry, white peach and subtle notes of Provençal herbs, this wine offers a fresh and lively tasting experience. On the palate the acidity is nicely balanced with the fruity character, and the finish is long and gently spiced, making this wine excellent both as an aperitif and as a companion to food. The Mourvèdre grape, which makes up a large part of this rosé, gives the wine structure and depth, while Grenache and Cinsault provide fruity freshness and elegance. Thanks to Bandol's limestone-rich soils and warm Mediterranean climate, the wine develops a distinctive minerality that enhances its refined taste.
Perfect with grilled fish, Mediterranean salads, and Provençal dishes.
