Château d’Aqueria’s sandy soils are perfect for producing great rosés with exceptional balance between freshness and maturity. Its complexity comes from a blend of six varieties of red and white grapes. Grenache Noir, Syrah and Mourvèdre give exceptional colour and tannic structure whilst Clairette, Bourboulenc and Cinsault complete the blend beautifully bringing a generous variety of aromas and a fresh finish.
A year marked by capricious weather and seasons. Though we were spared freeze damage, we had to be extremely vigilant throughout the season. Our efforts were rewarded and we are able to propose a superb vintage in terms of both quality and quantity. Our 2021 Tavel boasts a robe of intense colour, the Aqueria signature. Fruity nose of raspberry and black currant with notes of spices that develop on the palate. The outstanding balance in this vintage combining power and elegance enhances the aromas that persist throughout a lingering fresh and subtle finish. A great Rosé de Terroir.
Wine Advocate 91: Notes of raspberries, wild strawberries, pomegranate and grapefruit preface the 2024 Tavel from Château d'Aquéria, a medium- to full-bodied, round and enveloping wine with a structured mid-palate and a long, spicy and generous finish. This blend of 50% Grenache Noir, 20% Syrah, 10% Clairette, 10% Mourvèdre, 5% Cinsault and the rest Bourboulenc is a classic.
James Suckling 91: Dense, fruit-driven and caressing, showing watermelons, crushed berries and mild spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with a delicious, well-rounded and supple development on the palate.
