Mathilde Chapoutier Selection Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire AURISSO

Provence

Tasting Notes

Rich, long and velvety on the palate, combined with notes and flavors of summer berries, minerality and freshness, providing an ethereal touch. A wine exhibiting very fine character, a crisp and flavorful finish.

A great match with shellfish, king shrimp a la plancha, tartar with parmesan crisps, strawberries with basil and a dash of lime juice, or enjoy on it’s own!

The 2022 vintage in Provence was marked by the absence of the seasons, with average temperatures of 11°C / 51.8°F, sunny days and little rainfall. Pruning occurred late compared to the previous vintage yet was not impacted by the spring frosts. A cold spell gave way to a mild and dry spring, allowing the vines to develop quickly and in good conditions.Flowering was healthy with advanced phenological stages due to the dry winter. This, combined with the heat of summer, lead to early veraison followed by an early harvest. A short rainfall in August replenished the soils and set the grapes up for successful maturation on vine.

Crafting the best Rosé requires great care and timeliness. To ensure maximum freshness and vibrancy, harvesting is carried out at night and quickly brought into the cellar, where grapes undergo a short, cold maceration on the skin, followed by direct pressing and a cool vinification in stainless steel tanks to preserve aromatics.

Aged 5 months in stainless steel vats

Located east of Aix-en-Provence, at the foot of the Sainte-Victoire and Aurélien mountains in the commune of Pourcieux, the vineyards here exhibit a wide array of exposures and soil-types that help to create complex wines. The label identifies the wine with its soil and locality. The name Aurisso comes from the Provençal language word meaning gusts of wind.
