The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Taken over by the Léon family, Château Les Trois Croix has become one of Fronsac's leading names. Today, Stéphanie and Bertrand lead the estate to success, guided by their father Patrick: winemaker at Château Mouton-Rothschild for over twenty years, creator of the mythical Opus One and its Chilean alter ego Almaviva, he is also the initiator of the world's greatest rosé at Château d'Esclans. 

So, when the Bordeaux estate turns its hand to rosé, with all the dexterity we've come to expect from Provence, the results are more than impressive!
Wine The 2021 Vin de France Rosé is an extremely charming light-tinted rosé, which opens with a delicate, straightforward nose and lovely fruity aromas, particularly of red berries. The light, crisp, sapid palate has nothing to envy of a Provençal rosé! A true ode to freshness to be enjoyed all summer long with fish or as an aperitif.
Vinification Hand harvested, bled immediately after vatting with no maceration, only free-run juice, racking of natural lees, stirring of fine lees for 7 weeks.
