Les Jamelles Clair de Rose

When Catherine (the daughter of Beaujolais winegrowers) met Laurent (from a family of Burgundian wine negociants) in 1986 at university studying oenology (wine and winemaking!) it was inevitable their future was in le vin (wine!).

In the 1990s Catherine and Laurent headed to the Languedoc in the south of France with no vines, no winery and very little coin in the bank but a lot of determination to launch their own wine brand. By the early 2000s Les Jamelles was born and exported to the USA where it caught the eye (and nose and mouth) of Robert Parker, one of the world’s most influential wine critics. The rest as they say is history and today Les Jamelles is one of the Languedoc’s largest producer and exported to 45 countries across the planet.

This is the Les Jamelles Clair de Rose and it’s the quintessential southern French Rosé – full of bright, juicy, fruity summer fruit flavours, pale pink in colour and bone dry.

Serve it chilled and pair with white meats, fish, summer salads or if you want a bit of French inspiration for your food match try it with a Pissaladière (French Onion Tart).
