Marilyn Lasserre

Marilyn is a genuine pioneer. Since her return to France in 2008, she has significantly contributed to the renewed success of Languedoc’s wines. Bringing her feminine touch to traditionally strong, rustic and full-bodied wines, Marilyn succeeded in improving quality and taste with a rigorous selection in the vineyards and perfect control of the winemaking process. Marilyn studied Viticulture and Oenology in Bordeaux, and has spent time working in various regions throughout the world. Les Argelières is a tribute to the “Terroir” from which these wines are produced, a terroir mostly made of pebble and limestone perfectly exposed to the sun. It enhances the fruit aromas as well as the mineral style of the white wines, whilst giving the reds a vibrant fruit character. The Pays d’Oc has a history of over 2600 years of vine-growing and winemaking. Over the centuries, the wine trade became more and more structured and grew rapidly. The region greatly benefits from the Mediterranean climate, bringing warm mist, and the Black Mountain which offers limestone and clay “terroirs” with cool temperatures.

This rosé is a light and fresh wine, with fruit-forward aromas. It displays notes of wild raspberry and candied strawberry. The palate is lively and well-balanced, with mineral elements echoing on the finish.

The grapes are harvested at night, when temperatures are low, in order to keep the grapes fresh and to avoid oxidation. Upon arriving at the cellar, they are carefully pressed. Only the best juices are selected to craft this wine. After a 24h off-settling, the clear juices are drawn and left to ferment for 15 days between 13 and 15°C, in stainless steel tanks. The juices are drawn from the tanks to age on their fine lees for at least 5 months before bottling, protecting the wine from oxidation and enhancing aromas, complexity and texture.
