Lumea is a wine made for sharing stories, savouring life’s simple pleasures, and creating memories written in the stars above.
Lumea
Triassic clay-limestone soils.
The grapes are sourced from three carefully selected sites: older vines on wooded, sheltered hills for elegance and ripe fruit; east-facing slopes with a marked diurnal range, and deep, rich soils contributing aromatic lift.
Protected by small wooded hills, the first area is ideal for older vines, lending elegance and ripeness. The slopes facing sunrise benefit from warm days and cool nights which allows slower ripening. Finally, the vines on rich and deep soils add a note of aromatic freshness.
Lumea de Bijou is vinified with precision to preserve freshness and aromatic purity. Only free-run juice was used this year. After gentle settling, fermentation with selected yeasts takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to retain delicate aromatics, brightness and balance.
Pale, crystal-clear Provence rosé with bright red berry aromas and a delicate hint of apricot. The palate is round and inviting, with juicy fruit purity and a touch of sweetness balanced by lively acidity. A saline note carries the finish.
Perfect with summer seafood, Mediterranean salads, veal Milanese or spaghetti alle vongole. Also excellent alongside refined aperitifs such as olives, vegetable crisps, or sushi.
“Everyone wants a ‘bijou’, a tiny pink pearl. This wine is an excellent expression of a pretty, aromatic rosé from the South of France. Pale peach in hue, the wine shows raspberry, strawberry and white cherry fruit with a creamy underlying note. Just dry, the palate is light and elegant, underpinned by lively acidity and a hint of white pepper spice supporting the juicy fruit. An excellent wine for summer, it works nicely with asparagus wrapped in parma ham or sautéed white mushrooms.”

This region is particularly famous for its rosé wines, which account for about 90% of its wine production.
