Mas de Libian Vin de France Buve Z'en Rosé 2022

Biodynamic. This is drawn from the estate’s younger vines—again spread across a selection of rocky terroirs—and comprises one-third each of Grenache, Counoise and Syrah. Using the Provençal model, all three varieties were slowly pressed into tank after a short maceration and thereafter fermented with wild yeasts. These days, this is simply one of the most appealing, mineral and delicious rosés of the Rhône Valley. This 2022 is a punchy number, with fleshy red berries and bramble fruit underscored by garrigue and chalky tang. It’s so pure and delicious, with savoury complexity, a silky feel and a mouth-watering, vibrating close: get on the saucisson.
