Rosé

Crafted in the heart of Côtes de Provence in the village of Vidauban, the Olema Rosé embodies classic Provençal style. Aromas are bright and expressive, with classic rosé notes of ripe strawberry, grapefruit, and lavender. On the palate, vibrant acidity brings freshness and lift to layered flavors of strawberry, ripe watermelon, and orange blossom, with subtle notes of tangerine through the finish.

Vintage Notes

The 2025 growing season in Provence began with a notably wet winter and spring that replenished soil moisture. As the season progressed, warm conditions encouraged vigorous vine growth and healthy canopy development, while alternating periods of summer heat and cooler intervals allowed grapes to ripen steadily without excessive stress. Harvest arrived slightly earlier than average, with generally healthy fruit and good phenolic maturity. Overall, the 2025 wines from Provence are marked by vibrant freshness, balanced ripeness, bright aromatics, and lively acidity.

 

Winemaking Notes

All grapes went direct to press with minimal skin contact leading to the pale copper-salmon color and smooth, viscous texture. The must was fermented cold, preserving the freshness of floral aromatics, and matured in stainless steel, giving vibrant fruit intensity and a long, crisp finish.

Olema Rosé Ratings

James Suckling

A fresh and fruity rosé with aromas of sliced lemons, candied cantaloupe, peaches and a touch of strawberries. Medium- to full-bodied with light phenolics and a crunchy and lightly chewy finish. A blend of mostly grenache with some mouvedre and cinsault. Drink now. Screw cap.

James Suckling

Very floral and pretty with the typical peach and orange peel aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, crisp and clean with a brightness and dryness at the end. Fun hints of cotton candy.
