✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the sun-drenched vineyards of the Pays d'Oc, the 'Gabriel' Rosé by Maison Gabriel Meffre is a vibrant tribute to the southern French art de vivre. While the historic house of Meffre is deeply rooted in the rugged terroirs of Gigondas and the Rhône Valley, this cuvée showcases their expertise in selecting exceptional parcels across the Languedoc. Here, the Mediterranean climate—marked by hot, dry summers tempered by cooling sea breezes—allows the grapes to achieve optimal ripeness while retaining a crisp, refreshing acidity. Crafted using modern temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve its delicate primary aromas, this rosé captures the essence of summer in a glass, offering a bright bouquet of red berries, citrus, and subtle floral notes.
