More informations about the variety Grolleau
Vibrant and fruity rosés with a pale salmon colour, a tender palate and fresh acidity, on aromas of strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant, candy and spring flowers. Light and thirst-quenching finish. Star of Rosé d'Anjou AOC (a pleasing off-dry rosé) and backbone of Loire and Touraine rosés. Occasionally vinified as light reds and sparkling rosés. Native Loire grape from Anjou and Touraine, once the most widely planted variety in Anjou before Cabernet Franc.
More informations about the wines of France
France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is arguably the world's largest wine-producing country. For centuries, it has produced more wine - and apparently better quality - than any other country. Wine is embedded in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. However, the lasting appeal of French wine is not necessarily its Volume or prestige, but rather the variety of styles available.
