Chateau Ollieux Romanis ‘Lo Petit Fantet d’Hippolyte’

Languedoc, France

From a favourite rosé producer comes this little but bold treasure. An intense nose leads to fresh dark cherries and the delightful herby undertone keeps this wine in balance.
The Bories family practices 100% organic viticulture. Weed-killer is a thing of the past and chemical fertilisers have been replaced by compost made almost entirely on the vineyard. Indigenous yeast and no added sulphur make this wine our pleasure. The name is a direct translation from Occitan as ‘the little wine that is the little child of the little child Hippolyte.  The label no less is by the winemaker’s son. Very cute.
