Domaine Saint Aix - Aix Rosé 2023 offers a quintessential Provence rosé experience, characterized by elegance, freshness, and delicate aromatics. On the nose, it presents a pale, alluring salmon-pink hue, leading to a fragrant bouquet of fresh red berries, predominantly wild strawberry and raspberry, intertwined with notes of white peach and apricot. Delicate floral hints of rose petals and a crisp citrus zest, particularly grapefruit, add to its aromatic charm, underpinned by a subtle minerality. The palate is dry, crisp, and beautifully balanced, with a refreshing acidity that carries flavors of redcurrant, pink grapefruit, and a touch of ripe melon. It is light to medium-bodied, offering a smooth texture and a clean, invigorating finish that leaves a persistent impression of delicate fruit and refreshing minerality.

This vibrant and elegant Provence rosé is a wonderfully versatile food-pairing wine, ideal for a wide array of lighter dishes and warm weather cuisine. It shines alongside classic Mediterranean fare, such as grilled fish, shrimp, or calamari with herbs and lemon. It's an excellent companion to fresh salads, especially those with goat cheese, berries, or grilled chicken. Appetizers like charcuterie boards with delicate cured meats, olives, and fresh bread, or vibrant bruschetta, would also be a perfect match. Its crispness and fruit notes also make it a delightful pairing for sushi and sashimi, light pasta dishes with primavera sauces, or even a simple quiche. For cheese, fresh goat cheese, feta, or a mild brie would complement its delicate profile beautifully.
