In 1896, the famous winery Domaines Ott was founded by Marcel Ott. The domain consists of three different estates: Domaine Château de Selle, Domaine Clos Mireille, and Domaine Château Romassan. Each one brings particularly high-quality wines to the market. This 3-liter Rose Chateau de Selle is not just any rosé, but one that we can truly call a work of pure craftsmanship. This wine was created with great passion. The vinification method is biodynamic, with 100 percent attention given to the terroir. The harvest is collected entirely by hand in August. This is followed by a second selection of the grapes and a gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats, and the wine is finally aged for 8 months in oak barrels. This is what Domaines Ott is known for, because who else gives their rosé wood aging? Well, we can say that this is truly amazing, and it is certainly no surprise that this stunning rosé wins many international wine awards!
For us, it is number 1, with a soft bouquet in the aroma of red fruit, lime zest, minerals, and a hint of red roses. The taste is truly a masterpiece; drink it like a fine Sancerre, for instance, as every sip is unique and a distinct experience. In the taste of this Domaine Ott Rose Chateau de Selle 2024, we find impressions of red fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, and cherries, complemented by minerals, lime zest, grapefruit, and apricots. What a winner—be quick, as the 2024 vintage is very scarce! A beautiful and special detail is that the famous bottle design is based on the old terracotta amphorae in which olives were stored in the past.
