An exclusive alternative to rosé Champagne at a fraction of the price. Made in the perfect cool climate of Limoux, in the same exacting manner as vintage Champagne, this is a very fine and distinguished fizz with classic, strawberry scented finesse.

We have offered this exemplary rosé for years and its multitude of awards and 5-Star reviews speak volumes. It is a huge bestseller and especially popular at weddings. Roche Lacour winemaker Viviane Gianesini works her magic beneath the cool hills of Limoux. Here, the monks of Saint Hilaire are said to have mastered sparkling wine methods in 1531, many years ahead of Dom Pérignon of Champagne fame. Bottles back then were fragile and didn’t travel, so their success remained a local secret. This pioneering pink gains its salmon hue in the same manner as the finest Champagnes, from gently pressed Pinot Noir. Enjoy this exquisite rosé when you have something to celebrate. Otherwise, treat opening a bottle as a celebration in its own right!
