Comment

At the heart of the Angevin vineyard appellations, in Thouarcé, the Domaine de la Petite Croix is ​​part of a family tradition passed down for five generations. Clara and François Geffard farm 57 hectares of vines planted on clay and clay-shale soils. The estate is managed in sustainable viticulture and has benefited from High Environmental Value (HVE) certification since 2019, attesting to environmentally friendly management. Each year, their wines are awarded gold medals in different wine competitions.

Tasting

This deliciously sweet rosé, faithful to its appellation, has a color with salmon highlights and a lively nose with aromas of raspberry and redcurrant. Fresh and refreshing, it seduces with its fruity, supple and balanced taste. Particularly pleasant in its youth, it is a convivial wine, ideal for sharing. It will ideally accompany cold meats, melon, tarts – particularly with red fruits – as well as salads and fresh fruit bowls.
