Affectionally known at the 'Vin de Liqueur' or 'Mistelle' of the Cognac region, Pineau des Charentes is produced from blending one-quarter Eau de Vie of Cognac to three quarters freshly squeezed grape juice, creating a winning combination of fresh fruit and brandy warmth with a gentle spirit kick.

This Pineau from Pradiere has glowing golden hints and a delicate nose of dry grape with vanilla notes. It has a rich texture in the mouth with a long, elegant and persistently fruity finish. The Charente & Charente-Maritime wine regions are home to the aperitif of Pineau des Charentes a fortified wine made by blending Cognac Eau de Vie with grape must.

Most Pineau are white, but this Rose is Richer and fuller bodied than its Pineau Blanc brother, but this Pineau Rose still retains intense dried fruit aromas and tastes.

A hint of chocolate on the finish makes this a great accompaniment to dessert. 

The wine is produced by blending fresh grape must with Cognac, halting fermentation to retain natural sweetness and preserve fruity aromas. A meticulous ageing process in oak barrels allows the flavours to meld and develop, creating its signature balance.

Pineau des Charentes Rosé exhibits an intense aroma of dried fruits, complemented by hints of spice. On the palate, its lush texture reveals bright fruit flavours with a touch of delicacy, culminating in a long, elegant finish. Notes of chocolate and subtle spice add to its complexity.

This wine pairs beautifully with our creamy blue cheeses, such as Montagnolo, and our Blue Stilton, Bleu d'Auvergne, Roquefort and desserts featuring red fruits and chocolate. It also makes an excellent standalone aperitif.
