Description
Located at the heart of Languedoc in the south of France, Clos du Temple is created in the historic terroir of Cabrières, the birthplace of rosé wines. The terroir owes its unique nature to its geological origins. Contact between schist, limestone, and the hilly terrain has created a complex network of groundwater circulation that enables an exceptional natural water supply for the vineyard and the development of an extremely pure water source. Its altitude of 240 meters combined with its southern/southwestern exposure help to produce a perfectly balanced wine with great aromatic freshness. At Clos du Temple, we decided to cultivate our vines using biodynamic principles and to use horses and mules to strengthen the connection between the mineral, plant, animal, and human worlds.
Clos du Temple is a very pale and glittering rosé. Its nose reveals notes of ripe fruit (apricot, white peach), floral notes of rose, and spicy green pepper aromas. On the palate, we find the same scents, with a delicate finish of blond tobacco.
