Winemaking: Château Coupe-Roses vineyards are located in Minervois in the west of the Languedoc, close to the Atlantic-influenced foothills of the Montagne Noire. The grapes are hand harvested, destemmed and fermented with wild yeasts in stainless steel at a maximum of 25°C. They undergo a post ferment maceration 20-30 days with light punch downs. After pressing the wine is kept for a short period in stainless steel before bottling after a light filtration.
