2024 Chêne Bleu Rosé VDP Vaucluse, Rhone Valley, FranceABOUT THE WINE The 2024 Chne Bleu Ros is a testament to precision and altitude driven viticulture. Grown at nearly 550 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mont Ventoux, this IGP Vaucluse ros is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and a touch of Cinsault, all organically farmed.
