In 1896, the renowned Domaines Ott winery was founded by Marcel Ott. The estate consists of three different wineries: Domaine Château de Selle, Domaine Clos Mireille, and Domaine Château Romassan. Each produces exceptionally high-quality wines. This 1.5-liter Rosé Château de Selle is more than just a rosé; it's truly a work of art. This wine was created with great passion. The vinification method is biodynamic, with 100% attention to the terroir.
The harvest is entirely hand-harvested in August. This is followed by a second selection of the grapes and a gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place in thermoregulated vats, and the wine finally matures for eight months in oak barrels. This is what Domaines Ott is known for, because who ages their rosé in oak? Well, we can safely say it's truly fantastic, and it's no wonder this stunning rosé has won numerous international wine awards!
For us, it's our number one, with a soft bouquet of red fruit, lime zest, minerals, and a hint of red roses. The taste is truly beautiful; drink it like a good Sancerre, for example, because every sip is unique and a distinct experience. In the taste of this Domaines Ott Rose Chateau de Selle 2021, we find hints of red fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, and cherries, complemented by minerals, lime zest, grapefruit, and apricots. What a winner! Be quick, because the 2021 vintage is very scarce! A beautiful and unique detail is that the famous bottle is based on the old terracotta barrels in which olives were once stored.
