Rose Gold Cotes de Provence Rose 2025

This classic, elegant dry rosé originates from the heart of France’s premier rosé destination: the Côtes de Provence AOP. Rose Gold is a highly popular boutique label founded by wine entrepreneur Casey Barber, who set out to bottle the quintessential "Saint-Tropez lifestyle."

Rather than sourcing fruit from a single plot, the wine is crafted in partnership with a historic, multi-generational winery located just outside of Saint-Tropez. This collaboration leverages high-quality, sustainably farmed estate vineyards to deliver the pale color, electric freshness, and mineral snap that defines world-class Provence rosé.

Wine Description

The Rose Gold Provence Rosé is an exceptionally crisp, airy, and sophisticated wine that delivers classic French Riviera elegance with remarkable consistency.

• Appearance: An incredibly pale, luminous coppery-pink or "onion-skin" hue with brilliant platinum glints.

• Nose: Highly lifted, fresh, and expressive. The bouquet opens with delicate, bright aromas of white flowers and fresh-picked strawberries, layered beautifully with pink grapefruit zest, white peach, and a subtle undercurrent of crushed limestone.

• Palate: Bone-dry, light-footed, and remarkably refreshing. The palate entry treats you to a juicy wave of red currants and citrus peel, which transitions seamlessly into a clean, vertical mid-palate. It boasts a beautifully crisp, mouthwatering acidity and concludes on a dry, snappy finish marked by an enticing saline and wet-stone minerality.

• Technical Details: A traditional Provençal blend dominated by Grenache and Cinsault. The grapes are harvested by hand early in the morning to lock in high natural acidity and prevent oxidation. The fruit undergoes a gentle, immediate direct-pressing with very minimal skin contact to ensure its signature pale color. Fermentation is carried out completely cold in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, and the wine is bottled early under a screw cap to preserve its vibrant, youthful energy. It sits at a refreshing 12.5% ABV.

Food Pairing

Because of its bright citrus drive, bone-dry profile, and distinct mineral finish, Rose Gold is an elite lifestyle and dining wine. It is a fantastic match for fresh seafood and Mediterranean fare, pairing beautifully with grilled sea bass, chilled shrimp cocktails, tuna tartare, or a classic Salade Niçoise. Its high acidity allows it to cut cleanly through the rich fats of a charcuterie board featuring soft cheeses like Brie, goat cheese, or prosciutto, and it stands up gracefully to light, garlic-heavy tapas like gambas al ajillo.
