- A deliciously light and refreshing rosé, full of aromas of wild red berried fruit, layered with minerality and citrus nuances, through to a bright and lively finish. The Solis Lumen range, meaning 'Light of the Sun', was created to highlight the importance of the Mediterranean Sea, sun and wind, which shape their wines. In contrast, the Stars range has been produced for those who appreciate a modern, fresh and fruity varietal wine and is complemented by quirky packaging.
The grapes were carefully selected and then destemmed to remove any undesired green characters from the stalks. The Grenache and Cinsault grapes underwent brief skin maceration to impart the delicate pink hue to the juice. The Syrah grapes underwent direct pressing. Fermentation occurred with selected yeasts at cool temperatures of 15 to 18°C to retain the fruit-forward character. The wine spent several months in stainless steel tanks before being bottled young to maintain the vibrancy.

| Winery | Rose wines were the first to be made on the Mediterranean's banks; today, it is one of the Stars of the Pays d'Oc region. Made from a blend of traditional varietals from the South of France, the vineyard is certified organic and yields are kept low to concentrate the flavours in the juice. The warm Mediterranean climate is influenced by the cooling effect of the sea, resulting in intensely flavoured fruit balanced by natural freshness. The vineyard is farmed in the traditional method, using mechanical tools rather than chemical herbicides to control weeds; pheromones are used rather than pesticides to reduce pests in the vineyard and grape pomace is employed as fertiliser to nourish the soils. To preserve the biodiversity of the vineyards, trees are continuously planted 2,000 to preserve and maintain the wildlife. The grapes are harvested in the cool of the night to retain freshness and quality. |
