Heritages Côtes du Rhône Rosé 2011 :Patience, know-how, observation and intuition are the essential qualities to create and age our wines. Our team has shared this goal of excellence for more than 150 years. This passionate quest for making Rhône Valley wines was born in the prestigious vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Ogier ages the greatest appellations of the Rhône Valley in our ancient cellars.

The Côtes du Rhône “Héritages” is crafted by the personality and the history of Ogier, as well as by the wine-growing area of the Côtes du Rhône, where fruit, spices and generosity dominate.

Côtes du Rhône Heritages Rosé is delightful as an aperitif and very pleasant with exotic Mediterranean dishes, fish, veal or tasty poultry.
