Valérie Courreges VDF "Le Vent dans les Voiles" Rose

​Valérie Courrèges' "Le Vent dans les Voiles" Rosé is a vibrant expression of Provence, crafted from a 50/50 blend of Grenache and Cinsault grapes. Sourced from 40-year-old vines rooted in limestone and clay soils, the grapes are hand-harvested and undergo gentle pressing. Fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts in small concrete tanks, and the wine rests briefly on its lees before bottling, resulting in a pure, elegant rosé with a pale pink hue. 

On the palate, this wine offers bright, refreshing acidity with notes of red currant and lemon, complemented by a subtle hint of white pepper. Its dry, crisp profile and 12% alcohol content make it an ideal companion for warm days, whether enjoyed on its own or paired with light dishes such as pork, shellfish, or vegetarian fare. ​

Valérie Courrèges, who transitioned from chemistry to oenology, emphasizes conviviality and simplicity in her winemaking. Her approach focuses on creating wines that are accessible and enjoyable, reflecting her belief that wine should be about pleasure rather than complexity.
