Cazal Viel St Chinian Rose 2019
About the wine
Elegant, pale pink rose showing off the best of the Languedoc
- Laurent was told as a young winemaker by a Bordeaux wine grower that it was impossible to make wines with finesse in the Languedoc. He is dedicated to proving just how wrong this is, creating beautifully balanced and flawlessly fresh wines right from the Languedoc's heart.
- This rosé is Laurent's best yet - a real ode to Languedoc elegance. Palest pink with fresh strawberries on the nose and clean berry and lemon peel notes on the palate.
- Having allowed only the best grapes to ferment slowly and steadily for a month, Laurent has created a rosé with nothing short of the perfect minerality and complexity. Complex it may be, but you don't need to be a genius to know that this is really rather special!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Covid Support Fund
Among the (many) groups of people affected by your favourite restaurant or bar being closed are the small independent winemakers who supply them, and whose wine no longer has a home. It’s especially the small guys that have little-to-no hope of selling their wine any time soon...
With their markets in lockdown, orders have dried up completely. And with little government help available in lots of countries, many are in real danger of going bust.
We’re pledging to help the best of the independent winemakers who’ve been affected by this crisis. We’ve received over 200 applications so far. Some of the stories would be enough to bring you to tears. They have wine sitting in their winery, and this is their silver lining.
