Matthieu Barret's "Petit Ours" Rosé is a radiant, light-bodied ode to the sun-soaked vitality of France's Rhône Valley, where seventh-generation vigneron Matthieu Barret—renowned for his biodynamic ethos and mule-plowed vineyards in Cornas—channels the playful spirit of younger Grenache vines into this vibrant Vin de France expression. Sourced from hand-harvested, organically and biodynamically farmed parcels in the Côtes du Rhône, these 100% Grenache grapes thrive amid the region's schistous, sun-baked soils, yielding a joyful, low-intervention rosé that captures the wild essence of Provençal summers with effortless finesse.Crafted through spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in steel to lock in freshness—unfined, unfiltered, and kissed with minimal sulfur—this natural gem emerges at a poised 13% ABV, a testament to Barret's commitment to terroir-driven purity and minimal manipulation.In the glass, it shimmers with a pale, enchanting pink hue, unfurling a floral bouquet laced with roadside strawberries and wild aromatics that evoke sun-warmed fields. The palate bursts with juicy vibrancy: layers of dragon fruit, ripe strawberry, and tart plum weave through mineral whispers and a subtle, inviting sweetness, balanced by bright acidity and a refreshingly crisp finish that lingers like a gentle mistral breeze.
