Elia Cotes de Gascogne Rosé 9%
The cuvée ELIA is made from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape which has a unique property of having a naturally low alcohol content, between 9° and 11°. Thanks to slightly earlier harvesting than conventional Côtes de Gascogne wines and by interrupting the fermentation before all the sugar has been consumed, total alcohol is kept down to 9°

The Country
France
Following on from a fantastic vintage the year before, French vineyards endured a mixed bag of weather conditions in the early part of the growing season followed by a long, hot summer which produced some memorable wines, even to rival to the excellence of the previous year.
