Cuvée Jolie Terre de Providence Rosé Pays D’Oc IGP

Key characteristics:

Cuvée Jolie Terre de Providence Rosé Pays D’Oc IGP is a refreshing and elegant rosé, crafted by Bijou, a leading producer dedicated to quality and sustainability in the South of France. This wine embodies the vibrant spirit of the Pays D’Oc region, known for its expressive rosés, and is inspired by Picasso’s love for art, with “Cuvée Jolie” referencing his muse, Eva Gouel, and “Terre de Providence” celebrating nature’s careful protection of the land. It stands out for its delicate balance and authentic Southern French character, made from carefully hand-picked grapes from 25-50 year old vines grown on old volcanic soil, composed of 70% schist.
