Details
70 % Cinsault, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a rosé with real depth and character, layered with red fruit appeal and intense candied cherry flavour and ripe strawberry.
Perched in the idyllic hills of Bandol, Domaine les Luquettes embodies the rugged charm of Provence with a touch of elegance. Here, the sunshine-soaked terraces are dedicated to Mourvèdre, the king of Bandol’s reds, along with a touch of Grenache and Cinsault, creating wines that seem to capture the very essence of the Mediterranean. The reds are bold yet nuanced, brimming with rich black fruit, aromatic herbs, and a hint of wild spice that lingers like a warm Provençal breeze. Meanwhile, Domaine les Luquettes’ rosé is an absolute delight — pale, dry, and loaded with notes of fresh peach and subtle sea-salt minerality. Their secret? A mix of traditional practices and careful organic farming, allows the vines to speak for themselves while respecting the land they grow on. The result? Wines with real personality, from the crispness of the rosé to the deep, earthy complexity of their reds. Domaine les Luquettes is a true Bandol classic, balancing tradition with a vibrant energy, making each sip a pleasure.

Pairing guide
Elegant notes of soft berry fruits abound in this elegant rosé, made from the delightful combination of Mourvèdre and Cinsault grapes of Domaine les Luquettes. Delicious and oh-so versatile, this classic pale pink rosé will pair beautifully with aromatic fennel dishes, salty anchovies, Lebanese and Greek meze classics of hummus, eggplant, and fava beans, and with charcuterie and fresh tomato pasta dishes, too. It’s a stunning pairing for delicate fish like mullet, bass, and snapper, and will also work very well with spring rolls, Thai curries, and creamy brie.
