La Source Gabriel Rosé 2018
La Source Gabriel Rosé is a joint collaboration between Château la Tour de l'Évêque (Régine Sumeire) and Domaine Font-Freye (Régine's nephew, Roger Blanc Sumeire). La Source Gabriel was aptly named after Régine's grandfather and Roger's great grandfather (who founded Château la Tour de l'Évêque) and 'La Source' refers to the spring on Font-Freye that was ingeniously linked to the property by Gabriel when he founded the property.
La Source Gabriel Rosé is a classic Provence style rosé and is a blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah grapes organically grown in the Cotes de Provence. Light pink in colour, this rosé offers aromas of flowers and fresh citrus fruit on the nose. The palate is bright and fresh with flavours of exotic fruits and lime.
