Truly small-batch production of just 1,200 bottles. A very fruity and rounded rosé, but still dry and crisp. A glorious bottle to kick the evening off with pals.

The Millaire domain all started back in 1950, when Jean-Garnier bought up a few small parcels doted around right-bank Bordeaux. Since 1998, grandson Jean-Yves has headed things up, now expertly accompanied by his daughter Christine, operating across the AOPs of Fronsac, Canon Fronsac and Bordeaux.
