About This Wine

Classic Provence rose from vineyards located in the Coeur du Var department, in the heart of the Cote de Provence.

Pale as can be with just a touch of salmon blush, this wine is floral with sweetly-spiced berries on the nose, while the palate showcases floral and tart fruit character. Bright crisp acidity, balanced by a touch of minerality highlight this regional wine.

Light and elegant, this wine is exactly as advertised, and right in the zone for lovers of Provence rose.

About Rameau d'Or

For Mediterranean masters Debussy, Rameau d’Or is an estate dedicated solely to the pursuit of making high quality rosé.

Drawing from a fairytale theme, the name refers to a magical golden branch or bough. That said, slick stories aren’t required here - this is dry rosé made with intention from the favoured native grapes of Provence.

Mainly Grenache and Syrah, with smatterings of seasoning from Counoise and Cinsault, combine to give this the texture, depth and drive that are the calling cards of Côtes de Provence.

Additional Info

From The Producer

The 2020 vintage has proven some high-quality results after a troublesome start to the harvest period. An unusually warm winter sent the vines into budburst earlier than usual, followed by an unwanted spring frost which somewhat effected yields. When the heat arrived, a few welcomed thunderstorms during the summer enabled the fruit to ripen slowly, achieving gradual aromatic and acid development. As always, the mistral aided in cooling the vines down, protecting them from peak humidity related diseases, whilst cooler nights preserved freshness.

Blend : Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault

The Wine Front

"For cafes by the water in Provence, or something like that. Pale in colour and flavour, strawberries, some light cream, a smudge of gummy tannin lending some shape. It has good and perky freshness to it, dryer fruit characters, a touch of savouriness. It doesn’t really get out of first gear but it is very representative of the place and style. In the zone." - Mike Bennie (Wine Front)

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
