ANEWVOLCANICCUVEE
by Beaulieu
Situated in the heart of the Trévaresse, Provence's only volcano, the Beaulieu vineyards draw their unique character from this volcanic terroir which, combined with the savoir-faire of Oenologist Michel Fabre, gives rise to a rosé with unrivaled freshness.
This new cuvée was inspired by the richness and diversity of this wine region and the desire to put the spotlight on this unique terroir. BASALTE By Beaulieu is the result. The only rosé in Provence to be born in the crater of a volcano.

Basalt has a particularly high mineral content thereby guaranteeing optimum growing conditions for
the vine. The fossils and rocks in the soil result in the freshness and elegance that characterizes the Michelcuvée BASALTEFabre. This powerful. resource that nature has given us offers an exceptional environment for winemaking and produces an intense and well-structured wine that is highlighted by the rocky
texture of the bottle label.
'The basalt gives us this unique character that is truly unlike any other. It imparts endless freshness, intense fruit and a warm, sunny style that is so typical of Provence.
This raresoil type is a real asset as
it slows down ripening by 3 weeks compared to our neighboring vineyards.'
Michel Fabre.
Made from a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Cabernet, this wine discloses an attractive pale peach hue and aromas of white and yellow
stone fruits. The palate is fresh and floral. It makes the ideal partner for a monkfish soup or grilled red mullet.
