Domaine Ott Description
Experience a symphony of flavors with the Domaine Ott Chateau de Selle Rose, a quintessential Cotes de Provence wine. This prestigious rosé is a labor of love, embodying the precision, structure, and finesse required in rosé winemaking. Its creation is a rigorous process that honors the flesh of the fruit and the very essence of the grape. Crafted from a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, this rosé is a reflection of its unique terroir – a fusion of austere limestone hillsides and arid soil, bathed in radiant sunshine. The result is a wine of unparalleled depth and complexity, offering a sensory journey from the first sip to the last.
The Chateau de Selle Rose is a delicately hued pale pink with golden tints, a testament to its Grenache-dominated blend. The nose is an intoxicating bouquet of citrus fruit and orchard flowers, interwoven with intriguing spice notes. The palate is immediately elegant and open, unfurling layers of subtle flavors. This rosé teases the taste buds with a lemony edge before evolving into a sweet, lingering finish, a testament to its vinous character and meticulous crafting.
The Domaine Ott Chateau de Selle Rose is a versatile accompaniment to a variety of dishes. Its citrus undertones and floral-spice bouquet make it an excellent partner for light appetizers, seafood dishes such as grilled prawns or scallops, and Mediterranean cuisine. The wine's elegant structure and lengthy, sweet finish also complement richer dishes, such as roasted poultry or creamy risotto, providing a refreshing counterpoint. For a truly Provençal experience, pair this rosé with a traditional bouillabaisse or a Niçoise salad.

The 2022 Rosé Château de Selle Cru Classé opens with a striking bouquet, blending dusty dried flowers with ginger, a spritz of lemon and crushed apples. It’s supple and soothing to the senses, with a textural wave of white strawberry, candied orange and sweet inner florals. A core of brilliant acidity maintains a fantastic balance as this tapers off long and potent. A mineral staining and citrus hints tease the taste buds. Please pour me another.
