Rosé wines – Freshness and pleasure for every season

Rosé wines: freshness, deliciousness and the art of living

Rosé wine, long relegated to summer pleasures, is now recognized for its aromatic richness, versatility, and finesse. Light, fruity, or structured, rosé has established itself as a wine in its own right, capable of pairing with a wide variety of dishes or simply enhancing an aperitif with friends. At Les Vins de Carole, we offer a collection of rosé wines carefully selected for their quality, balance, and expression of terroir.

Iconic rosé wine regions

Provence is undeniably the birthplace of elegant and aromatic rosés, with flagship appellations like Côtes de Provence, Bandol, and Palette. But other French regions also excel in this art: Languedoc-Roussillon with its luscious rosés, the Loire Valley with its soft and fruity Cabernet d'Anjou, and the Rhône Valley with its more structured rosés made from Grenache and Syrah. Our selection celebrates this diversity, catering to all tastes.

The grape varieties of rosé

Rosé wine is the result of a subtle balance between winemaking techniques and grape variety selection. Grenache, which brings fruitiness and roundness, is often used; Syrah, for its spicy notes; Cinsault, for its finesse; Mourvèdre, for its structure; and sometimes Cabernet Franc or Pinot Noir, depending on the region. Rosé wines can be made by direct pressing or by the saignée method, two techniques that influence the color, texture, and aromatic intensity.

Food and rosé wine pairings: beyond the aperitif

Rosé isn't just for sunny days. A dry, light rosé pairs wonderfully with a Mediterranean salad, grilled fish, or tapas. A more structured rosé complements spicy dishes, white meats, or paella. Soft or semi-dry rosés can accompany Asian cuisine or even a red fruit dessert. Their freshness and suppleness make them particularly versatile at the table.

High-quality rosé wines, carefully selected

At Les Vins de Carole, we select rosé wines produced by passionate winemakers who respect the environment and often practice organic farming or are in conversion. Each vintage is tasted and chosen for its purity, balance, and ability to bring pleasure. Our collection includes both simple and approachable rosés as well as more complex cuvées for connoisseurs seeking originality.

A wine for all seasons

While rosé wine evokes images of summer terraces, it can also be enjoyed year-round. It's perfect for light meals, casual aperitifs, or exotic dishes. Its aromatic profile and freshness make it an easy-to-serve wine that appeals to a wide audience. It's also an excellent gift idea, synonymous with pleasure and sharing.
