Château Hourtin-DucasseLes Roses de MarieBorn from the desire to have a pretty summer freshness to taste between friends, we decided in 2003 to create our rosé. Although produced near Pauillac, on the terroir of Château Hourtin-Ducasse, Les Roses de Marie is neither a clairet, nor a bordeaux-rosé; it is worked partly in the manner of a côtes-de-provence. The proportions retained of cabernet franc and cabernet-sauvignon change each year according to the characteristics of the vintage to reach the balance between the fruit aromas and the vivacity that we look for.
Les Roses de Marie is not a garage wine, it is a wine of thirst, a delicious freshness, a nice pleasure to drink right away.
