From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

The Famille Lieubeau Rosé, with a history dating back to 1816, represents not only the winemaking tradition of the Loire Valley but also a fascinating family story. Joseph Grégoire Lieubeau, the winery's founder, was found as an orphan on the doorstep of the Hôtel Dieu in Nantes. His life and subsequent choice for viticulture are deeply intertwined with the identity of this wine. The family's symbol, a child wearing a hat, is not only a tribute to their founder but also a sign of their connection to nature and their respect for diversity. This rosé reflects this rich history and showcases the heritage of a family that has been producing quality wines for generations.

The Famille Lieubeau Rosé is crafted from a carefully selected blend of 50% Cabernet Franc, 30% Gamay, and 20% Grolleau Gris, grown on granitic soils that give the wine a distinctive mineral character. These grape varieties, sourced from 20-year-old vines, undergo a careful winemaking process that includes a short maceration and pneumatic pressing, followed by cold settling and fermentation at low temperatures. This results in a rosé bursting with aromas of red fruit and citrus zest, creating a fresh, fruity, and elegant flavor profile. The wine is perfectly balanced with a refreshing acidity that leaves you wanting more with every sip.

This rosé is excellent as an aperitif and pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes, from cold appetizers to barbecue dishes. Its vibrant fruitiness and subtle spice make it an ideal accompaniment to both light salads and more robust grilled meats. Its ability to complement and elevate the flavors of a dish makes it a favorite for many occasions. Serve the Famille Lieubeau Rosé chilled to reveal its full spectrum of flavors and savor the harmonious blend of tradition, nature, and craftsmanship that each bottle conveys. This rosé is not only a toast to the rich history of the Famille Lieubeau but also a celebration of the present, perfect for sharing moments of togetherness and enjoyment.
