Mas de Valeriole IGP Bouches-du-Rhone Rose 'Grand Mar' 2023

“Grand Mar” is pure Caladoc, a crossing of Grenache and Malbec which is particularly well-suited to the deep south of France, given its resistance to coulure (uneven flowering). With four hours of maceration at pressing, it is more assertive in its fruit character, with a more penetrating impression of minerality on the palate. While no heavier than the “Vé”, it is both finer and longer, with an overall sense of poise marrying nicely to its boisterous fruit.
