“When Mémé Ninette drew this sketch of a vine in 1914, she had no idea that it would be made into a cuvée that bears her name. We find in this rosé of Négrette and Syrah a part of our roots, transmitted over the generations to the last buds which today take over. A cuvée to enjoy with friends, family and which allows us to pay tribute to our elders and to remember how important transmission is in our profession. »
Grapes: Negrette and Syrah
Terroir: the plots are planted with a density of 4,500 to 5,000 vines/Ha, on a terroir of white boulbènes. The yield is 40 hl/ha.
Vinification: this saignée rosé is vinified at temperatures of 18° to 20°, in order to preserve its aromatic qualities. It is then aged on fine lees for a few months before bottling at the end of February.
Tasting: Ninette is elegance, finesse, just like our grandmother who knew how to reveal her artistic side by drawing this Virginia creeper.
At Le Roc, rosé is wine, real wine, with character, and it's not the color that will contradict it: it already announces the profile of the wine. From the first nose, the aromas of red berries and spices are there.
On the palate the surprise is beautiful: it is an ample and persistent wine.
Aging on fine lees gives it that extra body that allows it to be served throughout a meal, with poultry or fish, accompanied by piperade…on goat cheese, or on dishes with exotic flavors...

Fronton rosé Ninette 2019
Négrette, the original Fronton grape variety, gives the rosés of the appellation an unusual impetus. It colors the wines with a touch of intense pink and gives them a dimension that is both fruity and floral.
More complex than usual, the texture of this Ninette is forged by a flowing, suave material with a freshness essential to any respectable rosé.
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their parent, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author's wine is anything but a standard, stereotyped wine, made to please the greatest number. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage to vintage.
An author's wine is therefore a wine that does not resemble that of its neighbour. Who from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author – the two can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to lead his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes it, as he can, sometimes... And too bad if not everyone likes it.
This is why signature wines are sometimes classified as “table wine” or “vin de France”. Because the winemaker has not planted the authorized grape variety*, made the assembly or the vinification recommended in the appellation**. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that's why we love it!... That said, signature wines are not always marginal: they are present in most appellations, and can be part of the elite of these. this***. Because they don't just have personality: they're good, too! Generally with a very high degree of torchability : you never get tired of it after the first sip.
As auteur wines are not chaptalized, yeasted, tweaked...they can present very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (retailers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain loyal to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.

* For example, the Touriga Nacional in the Minervois, or the Syrah in the Côtes du Forez. They are crazy, these authors!
** Some winegrowers dare to produce sweet wines with Mourvèdre or a natural sparkling wine with Pineau d'Aunis
*** like those of Jean-François Ganevat in the Jura or Zind-Humbrecht in Alsace
