- About This Wine
Château de Gourdon is a historic estate located in the heart of the Southern Rhône Valley, near Bollène. Established in 1870, the vineyard spans 50 hectares across the Côtes-du-Rhône and Côtes-du-Rhône Villages appellations. The estate is renowned for its commitment to sustainable viticulture, blending traditional methods with modern techniques to produce wines that authentically reflect the terroir. The Mistral au Jardin rosé is crafted from a blend of 60% Cinsault and 40% Grenache noir grapes, harvested from vines planted on fine sandy soils. This cuvée is characterized by its pale salmon pink color and offers a bouquet of fresh almond, melon peel, and sweet tangerine zest. On the palate, it delivers a crisp, dry, and refreshing experience with bright acidity and a subtle savory twist on the finish. This wine pairs excellently with salads, grilled fish, or fresh goat cheese, making it an ideal choice for summer gatherings. The 2024 vintage showcases the finesse and freshness that make this rosé a go-to bottle for long summer evenings. [Source: Château de Gourdon Official Website]
