Cote Des Roses brings a little more sparkle to Australia with the new Esprit de Cote Des Roses
Cote des Roses is adding a new kind of sparkle to Australian celebrations with the launch of Esprit de Cote des Roses, a refined sparkling rosé from acclaimed South of France winegrower Gérard Bertrand. Fresh, elegant and made for sharing, Esprit de Cote des Roses brings the brand’s unmistakable Mediterranean spirit to the sparkling category for the first time.
Crafted from a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Grenache Noir, the pale pink cuvée balances freshness and finesse with generous texture. Aromas of fresh red berries and delicate white florals lead to fine, lively bubbles and a creamy mousse, before a soft and lightly textured finish.
Created for the moments that deserve a little lift, Esprit de Cote des Roses is equally suited to an impromptu aperitif, a long lunch with friends or a special occasion. Chic without feeling formal, it is a sparkling rosé designed to make everyday occasions feel a little more magical.
Esprit de Cote des Roses is made using a distinctive, tasting-led approach. Blending begins with the still base wines and continues after the second fermentation, once the bubbles have developed. This allows the winemaking team to refine the wine’s aromatic expression and achieve the desired balance on the palate.
Selected reserve wines, including components aged under wood, may be incorporated with restraint to bring added depth and cohesion. The result is an expressive sparkling rosé with freshness and clarity that remains approachable and easy to enjoy.
The bottle has also been designed exclusively for Esprit de Cote des Roses under the artistic direction of Emma Bertrand. The brand’s signature rose is embossed directly into the glass, with finely sculpted details extending to the base. As light moves across the relief, the bottle becomes part of the celebration itself, made to be displayed or given as a gift.
“With Esprit de Cote des Roses, we seek to continue the Cote des Roses mission to make every day more magical,” said Emma Bertrand, Creative Director of Cote des Roses.
Since launching in 2013, Cote des Roses has become known around the world for combining approachable luxury, consistent quality and a distinctive visual identity. Esprit de Cote des Roses is a natural extension of that story, bringing the brand’s sense of beauty, pleasure and Mediterranean ease to sparkling rosé. Its exclusive sculpted bottle also creates a clear distinction from the still wines within the wider Cote des Roses collection.
Esprit de Cote des Roses (Vin de France 12% ABV, 750ml) is available to purchase in Australia at Dan Murphy’s from $29.99.
