Côtes du Rhône “Saint Vincent” 2024

AOP Côtes du Rhône Rosé

Tasting

A delicate, luminous salmon-pink colour. Enticing nose with aromas of harlequin candy and strawberries. On the palate, an elegant, structured rosé with notes of fresh strawberry. Lovely length with a hint of liveliness that enhances the finish. (Tasting July 2025)

Food & wine pairings

Enjoy chilled as in aperitif or with barbecued white meats, turkey kebabs marinated in herbs or grilled vegetables.

Detailed information

Vintage

2024 stands out for its freshness and balance, a breath of fresh air in a demanding climate. The rainy spring regenerated the soils, and the summer, with its heat and cool nights, brought out the best in the aromas and colours. Despite modest yields of fine quality, the harvest produced fresh, dynamic and harmonious wines, with well-balanced alcohol levels and well-integrated tannins. Overall, we found the balanced profiles of classic vintages, with ripeness, acidity and richness.

Grape varieties

Grenache (+70%), Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, Muscardin, Carignan, et Marselan

Terroir

The vines grow on both sides of the Rhone river, on calcareous and clay soils. The climate is characterized by rather mild winters and hot & dry summers. The “Mistral” wind blows on the vines, especially during autumn and spring, protecting vineyards from diseases.

Winemaking

Grapes are vinified separately; direct press and cold settling (5-8°C). Alcoolic fermentation at low temperature (10-12°C) to obtain the “best of the fruit”. No malolactic fermentation. Blend of the grape varieties and early bottling to preserve freshness and fruit aromas.

Service

Serve cool (12°C) from now to enjoy its fruity aromas.

Technical sheet

Gabriel Meffre

Delicious and savoury from day one: this is the commitment of our Gabriel Meffre "signature" wines. For each appellation, and in keeping with the characteristics of the vintage, our know-how is recognisable through our experienced blending of "terroirs" and grape varieties and through our careful maturing, favouring purity of fruit and silkyness of texture. Already enjoyable in their first year after bottling, the Crus also have good aging potential.
