Presentation
Océana evokes the long ocean beaches, a surfing paradise, but also the wind in the fragrant pine forests and the oyster huts... everything that makes up the charm of our "West Coast". This rosé is full of good humour and deliciousness, with a freshness that caresses like the sea breeze. Its notes of red fruit and white peach awaken the senses and take us on a 100% holiday tasting experience on the Atlantic coast.
The vintage
The weather in 2024 was extreme, with heavy rainfall, lack of sunshine and cool temperatures, making the fight against vine diseases particularly difficult. After a somewhat difficult flowering period with some coulure, a more favourable period in August allowed the grapes to change colour evenly, followed by a rapid harvest in September to preserve the quality of the grapes. This vintage marks a return to normal harvest dates.

Tasting
A lovely bright salmon colour, rather pale with silver highlights.
The wine's aroma is notably intense, with a rich blend of red fruits, led by raspberry, accompanied by subtle notes of vine peach and delicate floral nuances of fresh rose.
On the palate, the wine displays a supple attack, revealing a round, full-bodied character. This is supported by a pleasant freshness that extends to the finish. The vintage is characterised by its finesse and balance, with a seductive brilliance and a delicious flavour.
