Domaine de la Rochelierre
2021 Asphodèles Rosé
This thirst-quencher is juicy and crisp with notes of pink grapefruit and small red fruits. The addition of Colombard in this rosé is very delicious! The organic vineyards sit near the Mediterranean Sea so they are bathed in sea breezes giving a special freshness to this wine.
Try it with Pissaladière (flatbreads) from Provence or your favorite pizza! Charcuterie, veggies skewers, feta spinach, mint and quinoa tartelettes and above all: smoked salmon rillettes!

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
For more than 40 years, Domaine de la Rochelierre has gone ‘beyond organic’ and practiced the Cousinié method in its 15 hectare vineyard, using only organic, herbal and mineral infusions in their farming. The herbal sprays and soil amendments are custom created from organic materials for each specific vineyard. The domaine is located in the village of Fitou, the cradle of the Pays d'Oc.
Production Notes
Direct pressing, in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks.
Winemaker Notes
Domaine de la Rochelierre is owned and operated by the Fabre family who have been growing grapes and producing wine on the 37-acre property for four generations. Jean-Marie Fabre and his wife Emilie, the younger generation, now manage the vineyards and the wine production with skill, wisdom and passion. They are deeply committed to organic farming practices and all aspects of natural winemaking.
