Château de Manissy Tavel Tête de Cuvée Rosé 2022

Château de Manissy stands on the right Bank of the river Rhône; an historic wine estate dating back to the 17th century, whose iconic vineyards produce wines in the Tavel appellation. In the early 20th century, both the château and its vineyards were bequeathed to a religious order of monks. In 2003, winegrower Florian André took over management of the vineyards and has picked up where the Brothers left off, making classic southern Rhône wines. Florian’s mission is to find new ways to improve environmental performance and protect his vines and terroirs.

Tasting notes

Rich and caramelly, this unusual cuvee develops flavours of candied fruit and spices. Delicious flavours, excellent length.

Other notes
Tête de Cuvée was the first wine to be made by the Château. The Brothers of the Holy Family have been ambassadors for Tavel since 1915, extolling this classic cuvee and introducing it far and wide. Tête de Cuvée is a timeless wine, still made in the traditional way. Fashions have come and gone, but even the label remains unchanged.
