2020 Domaines Ott Chateau Romassan Rose
2020 Domaines Ott Chateau Romassan Rose The wine displays a bright, pretty peachy-pink hue. The luscious nose blends aromas of white peach and exotic fruit with hints of vanilla in this 2020 vintage. The whole is complemented by a lemony and slightly spicy touch reminiscent of everlasting flowers. The soft, broad palate is accompanied by a pleasant freshness that adds length and leads to a citrus and yellow fruit finish.
Domaines Ott
In 1896, after a tour of France’s many vineyards, Marcel Ott, a young graduate in agronomy engineering, finally found an estate that inspired him. To set the scene, we are in Provence. The Mediterranean is lapping at the shore a mere stone’s throw away.
In these parts, growing vines is the legacy of ancient times. Alas, a short while before Marcel Ott’s discovery, phylloxera had wreaked havoc on the vines. The land was cheaper, but the vineyards would have to be replanted. The wine had lost a great deal of its soul in the vineyard’s reconstruction. Marcel Ott bought several estates and began renovating them with the determined ambition to create great Provencal wines from noble grape varieties.
Today, 120 years later, cousins Christian and Jean-François Ott dedicate their life to their ancestor’s love for the site. In 2004, Domaines Ott joined Louis Roederer and its fabulous selection of wine craftsmen.
Christian and Jean-François run three estates: Château de Selle, Clos Mireille (both Côtes de Provence) and Château Romassan (Bandol). Each of these properties has its own individual charm and personality. Each can be proud of their extremely elegant rosé, red and white wines.
