Chuck Hayward, JJ Buckley, August 2010

The color of this beautiful rose is an intense, translucent magenta. Pure aromas of strawberry mash with light, spicy notes make the palate thirst for a taste. Ripe merlot from the excellent 2009 vintage provides the foundation for a fruit forward palate, while a subtle note of fresh-picked tarragon provides a lovely, herbal counterpoint to the rich fruit. Excellent acidity from start to finish creates a real thirst-quencher! Rol Valentin was our Best Buy of the 2009 vintage on our visit to en primeurs earlier this year and this serious rosé reflects the quality of the harvest. Perfect for aperitifs or try with grilled lamb or quail salad.

About Winery

Château Rol Valentin is one of the new breed of garagiste wines that have emerged in St-Emilion  in the last 10 years. These wines are made in minuscule quantities and are usually very deeply colored, intensely concentrated, and packed with super-ripe fruit with strong hints of new wood.

Rol Valentin has just 5 hectares of vineyards located on the north-western part of the plateau of St-Emilion. Its vineyards are planted with 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
