Domaines Ott Château Romassan Bandol, 2022

**New vintage is 2022

The Château Romassan Rosé showcases an exquisite combination of elegance, richness, and a captivating taut character, all meticulously crafted through diligent vine care and winemaking practices. Each vineyard plot receives individual attention, capitalizing on its inherent qualities, yet all vines thrive in the renowned Bandol terroirs characterized by arid soil (including limestone, sandstone, and sandy marl) and an exceptionally dry, sunny climate.

These unique attributes provide an ideal environment for Mourvèdre, the predominant grape in this blend, allowing it to fully express its potential and contribute solidity, structure, and exceptional aging capabilities. The blend is further enhanced by the robust texture of Grenache, the gentle smoothness of Cinsault, and the subtle fruity roundness of Syrah, adding depth and complexity to the wine.

With its delicate pale pink hue, tinged with hints of gold or orange, the wine emanates an alluring aroma of citrus fruits and delicate white orchard flowers. On the palate, it instantly captivates with its vibrant and lively character, revealing flavors of pink grapefruit, succulent fruits, and, after aeration, nuances reminiscent of fruit tart. The finish is both intricate and enduring, leaving a lasting impression on the senses.
