Details
As ancient and "serious" as Chateau de Paraza's winemaking history may be, this dry Pinot Noir rosé sure brings a lot of pop and play to the table. Bright watermelon, bubble gum and juicy strawberry aromas jump out of the glass. The palate is juicy yet feathery with fairy floss notes and blissful charm. This rosé has enough youth-reminiscing fun carnival vibes to make even a rainy day on the couch bright and jovial!

Minervois is a region esteemed for its vineyard landscapes that are perched upon a breathtaking backdrop of southern French foothills. This exciting region also boasts a rich and remarkably deep wine history. Archaeological evidence shows that viticulture here dates back to early-Roman times. The Chateau de Paraza Estate is certainly no new kid on this vineyard block. In fact, while under Louis the XIVth (14th) Chateau de Paraza served as a base during part of the building of the canal that connects the Mediterranean sea to the Atlantic Ocean. If the walls of Chateau de Paraza could talk, we know there would be a bookcase worth of colourful wine stories to tell. Jump ahead to our modern century and you'll find the close-knit Danglas family — parents and three children, Lucile, Matthieu, and Antoine — doing all the hands-on work in the vineyard and winery. They have a clear winemaking philosophy; to honour the tradition of the estate with a keen eye on sustainable agriculture. The proof of success is in the glass. The wine of Chateau de Paraza speaks a voice true to their unique terroir and the estate's rich history.

Pairing guide
What a bright Rosé! So much flavour and complexity, with an amazing juicy mouthfeel. This rosé really needs to be served with flavoursome food to get the most out of it. It's going to love being paired with everything from spicy Indian curries to oily fish dishes, and from Thai-style tofu and pho noodle soup to fresh feta salads, pies, burgers, and more. Go and get creative in your kitchen… if there's lots of flavour on the plate, you simply can’t go wrong with this wine!
