Domaines Ott 2021 Chateau de Selle 1.5L

The 2021 Château de Selle from Domaines Ott presents itself with a delicate, pale pearly pink hue. On the nose, it is precise and mineral-driven, unveiling a bouquet of peaches, apricots, and vanilla, underscored by passion fruit and a hint of lime peel. The palate opens with a refreshing attack, evolving into rich yellow fruit aromas that grow in intensity. This wine is perfectly balanced, finishing with a slightly minty, saline, and zesty finale. The 2021 vintage, composed of 55% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 10% Mourvèdre, and 5% Syrah, reflects a harmonious blend of varietals that culminates in a wine of remarkable freshness and depth.

"Call it a down year if you must, but the 2021 Cotes de Provence Rose Chateau de Selle remains one of the region's top wines. Scents of tangerine, peach, crushed stone and lime zest mark the nose, while the medium-bodied palate is plump and juicy, finishing long and layered. The assemblage this year is 55% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 10% Mourvèdre and 5% Syrah."

"Limpid orange. A sharply focused, mineral-accented bouquet evokes fresh red berries and pit fruits, citrus pith and pungent flowers. Silky and penetrating on the palate, offering tangy redcurrant, pomegranate and blood orange flavors and a hint of honeysuckle. The floral note builds steadily through an impressively long, nervy finish that echoes the citrus and mineral notes. - Josh Raynolds"
