BY.OTT Côtes de Provence Rosé Côtes de Provence, France

Vintage: 2021

Domaines Ott has been pioneering prestige rosé wines since 1912. Founded in 1896 by Marcel Ott, the wine estates of Domaines Ott were acquired by Louis Roederer in 2004. Descendants of the founder carry on the heritage of producing some of the world’s most prestigious wines form the French Riviera.

BY.OTT is a wine produced with all the savoir-faire of the Domaines Ott team in the newly-constructed cellar of Château de Selle. It is a refined and elegant wine for any rosé enthusiast. The blends originate from select vineyards in Côtes de Provence that have been chosen to ensure that the wine is characterized by fruit and freshness with added finesse and complexity.

Winemaking

BY.OTT Côtes de Provence Rosé is primarily sourced from Château de Selle and Clos Mireille (80%) and balanced with fruit from trusted vineyards established generations ago. Ott vineyards are farmed organically and the average age of vines is 22 years.

The wine is made under the strict supervision of cousins Jean-Francois Ott and Christian Ott, the fourth generation of winemakers. The quality of the wine is perfectly homogenous and consistent, from the first to last bottling.

All the winemaking processes are fully controlled – from blending to storage – to ensure that the highest quality standards are maintained.

Tasting Notes

The wine displays a bright, pretty peachy-pink hue. The luscious nose blends aromas of white peach and exotic fruit with hints of vanilla. The whole is complemented by a lemony and slightly spicy touch reminiscent of everlasting flowers. The soft, broad palate is accompanied by a pleasant freshness that adds length and leads to a citrus and yellow fruit finish.
