TERRE DE PROVIDENCE
The name “Terre de Providence” makes reference to nature’s care and protection of the Earth or ‘Terre’. Without this ‘providence’, the terroir would not be how it is today.
Old volcanic soil composed of 70% schist
Grapes sourced from selected vineyards in the foothills of the Black Mountain around the appellations of Saint Chinian, Faugères and Côteaux de Languedoc.
The grapes for Bijou Terre de Providence are carefully hand picked, de-stemmed and then gently crushed. Indigenous yeasts are used to ferment the wine for 15 to 18 days in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. Fermentation takes place at low temperatures of 14-16 °C to preserve the delicate fruit flavours. Each grape variety is harvested and fermented separately and then finally blended together to create a super example of Southern French Rosé.
Bijou Terre de Providence has a delicate pale pink colour. Our rosé offers delicious flavour and aromas of bright berry fruit, floral honeysuckle and citrus notes. The palate is light and freshwhile full-flavoured. There is crisp refreshing acidity that leads toa long delicate finish.
Perfect as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to Mediterranean cuisine such as salads and seafood, especially shellfish.
