    Discovering the wine region of Rosé des Riceys

    Rosé des Riceys is a still wine AOC for rosé wines made exclusively from Pinot Noir - an anomaly in their home region of Champagne. The wines are produced in and around the commune of Riceys in the Aube department, in the extreme South of Champagne. The wines are quite well coloured and have the characteristic Pinot Noir Aroma of red cherries and Dried herbs. The grapes are pressed as whole bunches after being vinified by "semi-carbonic" Maceration (a more famous Vinification technique associated with the Bright, chewing gum-scented Beaujolais Nouveau wines).

    Maceration times are generally Short, with the colour of the resulting wine falling somewhere between salmon and madder. The wines must have a vintage and are usually released in the summer following the harvest (wines cannot be sent for bottling until July of the year following the harvest). Documented evidence of viticulture in the area dates back to the 8th century, although viticulture was probably established in antiquity. Legend has it that workers from Riceys gave a bottle of their rosé to King Louis XIV during the construction of the Château de Versailles.

      Discover the grape variety: Cabernet franc

      Cabernet Franc is one of the oldest red grape varieties in Bordeaux. The Libourne region is its terroir where it develops best. The terroirs of Saint-Emilion and Fronsac allow it to mature and develop its best range of aromas. It is also the majority in many blends. The very famous Château Cheval Blanc, for example, uses 60% Cabernet Franc. The wines produced with Cabernet Franc are medium in colour with fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits and spices. When blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it brings complexity and a bouquet of aromas to the wine. It produces fruity wines that can be drunk quite quickly, but whose great vintages can be kept for a long time. It is an earlier grape variety than Cabernet Sauvignon, which means that it is planted as far north as the Loire Valley. In Anjou, it is also used to make sweet rosé wines. Cabernet Franc is now used in some twenty countries in Europe and throughout the world.
