Mainly Cinsault, with Grenache, Syrah and Merlot. Owned by Jacques Seysses and Aubert de Villaine of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. “Fresh new-vintage example of this distinctive IGP rosé. Red-berry fruit on the nose/palate, with a herbal edge to add more complexity. You can taste the low-temperature fermentation techniques via the ester-y hints, but this doesn’t take away from a lively rosé, which has more about it than most pink wines from Provence.” 16/20 Andy Howard MW for Jancis Robinson MW “Triennes is a 46-hectare Mediterranean estate acquired In 1989 by Jacques Seysses of Domaine Dujac, Aubert de Villaine of Domaine de la Romanée Conti, and their Parisian friend, Michel Macaux. Located in the Var due east of Aix-en-Provence, the hillside property has been thoroughly upgraded. The vineyard is now farmed organically and was renamed “Triennes,” a reference to Triennia, the festival for Bacchus. This Rosé, a blend of Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, and Merlot, is everything you would expect from Provence and more. Light salmon in color, with an aroma of fresh strawberries and watermelon, it is lively and refreshing on the plate with lush berry flavors. Not a lightweight, but simply a delicious Rosé with enough richness to enjoy with lunch or by the pool.” 92 Points, Norm Roby, Wine Review Online Order Any 6 Bottles For Fast FREE Delivery.
