MINUTY
PRESTIGE ROSÉ
Minuty Prestige wines have been showcasing the terroirs of Provence for over 25 years. These are wines of character, born of a subtle alliance between power and finesse.
THE STORY
This cuvée was born over 25 years ago out of Jean-Etienne and François Matton's desire to offer a wide audience of Provence rosé lovers a wine combining aromatic expression and lightness on the palate with a thorough mastery of Provence's terroirs. The bottle design was revised in 2020.
THE METHOD
This cuvée is the result of a meticulous blending of a selection of grapes from the Appellation with those from the estate. Everything is vinified at controlled temperatures, low enough to preserve the aromatic potential of the grapes, but high enough to extract their subtleties. Grenache is blended for elegant aromas, Syrah for aromatic complexity, Cinsault for freshness and Rolle, the great white variety of Provence, which adds mineral aromas to the wine.
THE FLAVOUR
A crystal-clear cuvée with a delicate nose. Notes of tart red fruit dominate. Apricot comes through later. A great minerality stretches out the mouth with length.
THE EXPERIENCE
The lovely earthy aftertaste is ideal for seafood, with salty oysters making a match made in heaven as well as whelks, clams and anything on a seafood platter. Fish ceviche and sushi, California rolls and grilled sh work just as well. Let’s not forget Italian cuisine with classic trattoria dishes including veal Milanese and spaghetti alle vongole or delicious Provençale specialities such as stuffed vegetables or vegetable stacks.
