Tasting Notes
From old Grenache and Cinsault vines grown on limestone and clay soils in Provence, Cuvée Clarendon is a finely structured rosé of depth and precision. Aromas of wild strawberry, blood orange and redcurrant mingle with floral notes and a subtle herbal lift. The palate is dry and textural, with juicy red fruit balanced by fresh acidity and a savoury mineral thread, finishing long and elegant. More serious than the domaine’s lighter cuvées, it is a rosé that combines charm with complexity and the ability to evolve gracefully over time presenting more savouriness to the beholder. - Chris L
Domaine Gavoty is a historic family estate in Provence, with winemaking roots that trace back to the 18th century. Situated in the commune of Cabasse, inland from the Mediterranean coast, the domaine encompasses around 50 hectares of vineyards planted on limestone and clay soils, surrounded by forest and garrigue. The Gavoty family has long been committed to sustainable farming, with a deep respect for the environment and a focus on crafting wines that reflect the character of their terroir.
While the estate produces balanced reds and whites, it is best known for its rosés, which combine the freshness of Provence with greater texture and depth than many wines from the region. Old-vine Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Rolle (Vermentino) are at the heart of the range, vinified with precision and restraint to preserve fruit clarity and mineral definition. Flagship bottlings such as Récital and Cuvée Clarendon show both elegance and longevity, placing Gavoty among Provence’s benchmark producers.
