Chateau de Trinquevedel, Tavel Rose, Rhone, France, 2025

Overview of the Wine
Guillaume Demoulin is the fourth generation of his family to farm the vineyards of Château de Trinquevedel. His great-grandfather, Eugène, bought the 18th century château in 1936—a decision that coincided with the establishment of Tavel’s A.O.C that same year. Guillaume, with the help of his wife, Céline, farms thirty-two hectares that are situated in the hills of the Montagne Noire. Their stony vineyards resemble those of the famous Châteauneuf, comprised of sand and galets roulés. The climate and sun exposure produce grapes with tremendous concentration and power. The rosés of Château de Trinquevedel consistently enjoy aromas of ripe, red berries with notes of the ubiquitous spicy garrigue.

Tasting Notes
This dark, full-bodied rosé from the southern Rhône commands the stage with its hearty presence. Ripe red berries and fine tannins make this Tavel an ideal match for a bistro burger with fries or a charcuterie and cheese board. In terms of food pairings, it can be enjoyed like a quaffable red wine from a nearby region, yet its unique sheen and shimmer, both in the glass and on the palate, distinguish it as a wine in its own right.
