Les Impatients Rosé
- Description
- Winemaking
An Extra Brut sparkling table rosé combining roundness, freshness and deliciousness!
The harvest is carried out early in the morning to preserve the freshness of the juices on plots located at the foot of the Luberon, characterized by limestone and sandy soils. The grapes harvested are slightly under-ripe to retain their natural freshness and lively acidity. A second fermentation in a closed vat allows the production of fine and delicate bubbles. The final dosage is less than 5g/L of sugar, giving this sparkling wine an Extra Brut classification.
Sulphites: This wine contains sulphites in very limited quantities less than 30mg/L.
Bottling: This wine is produced and bottled in the heart of the Luberon in our Domaine in Lauris.
Consumption of alcoholic beverages during pregnancy, even in small quantities, can have serious consequences on the health of the child.

Tasting notes
Fine, light and fresh bubble. Tangy berry fruits are predominant in this vintage. Wild strawberries, scrubland and fennel invite you to Provence. Let yourself be carried away by its deliciousness.
A vegetal and floral nose on a field of small fruits and small red, tangy berries, a reflection of spring, freshness and sunshine!
A vinous palate which offers us a coulis of small red berries lifted to the nose. Lots of roundness, structure and generosity for this sparkling table rosé.

FAQs
Do your wines contain sulphites?
Our wines contain sulphites, which are naturally present in wine to protect against oxidation and help guarantee the good stability of our wines. The quantity of sulphites present in our wines is nevertheless very limited, remaining below 30mg/L in each of our wines, when the legal framework authorizes the presence of sulphites up to 200mg/L. Our wines therefore do not give a headache for people sensitive to this molecule.
Are your wines organic?
Yes, we are very proud to claim our certification in organic farming for over 10 years. The transition of our vines was initiated by Frédérique Biousse and Guillaume Foucher following their acquisition of Domaine de Fontenille in 2013 and was carried out gently because the older generations of Fontenille winegrowers were already kind to their land.
Do you produce sweet wines?
We do not produce sweet or sweet wines at Domaine de Fontenille. The wine profiles are rather dry and tense, in keeping with the expression of our limestone and mineral terroir.
Do you produce varietal wines?
We have chosen to focus on the history of the appellation. We believe that respecting the region's tradition of blending several grape varieties is the way to go. This brings complexity to our wines for the greatest pleasure of your taste buds.
