La Vieille Ferme is a hugely successful French wine brand produced by the Famille Perrin (of Château de Beaucastel fame). This beautifully bright rosé is fresh and aromatic with a delicate bouquet and plenty of red and citrus fruit flavours.
Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Beautiful bright powder-pink colour, with silver highlights. Fresh, fruity and delicious, the nose reveals a delicate bouquet with notes of roses and red fruit which then evolve towards tangy notes. The palate offers a beautiful balance between freshness, liveliness and deliciousness with tasty notes of strawberries and peaches with great tension. All in finesse, saline and mineral notes punctuate the long finish of this fresh and delicious wine."

"A cheeky little southern French Rosé at an appealing price with even more appealing dry flavours of crisp red berries and dried red fruit. A savoury note adds depth to this medium-bodied wine. Great summer drinking and excellent value for money."
Elizabeth Gabay MW, Decanter UK, March 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"A rosé with all the freshness of grapes sourced at 300m altitude in the Luberon and Ventoux. The original rosé in the Perrin range, this wine was made to represent Rhône rosé and shows real left-bank typicity, with longer finesse compared to the boldness and structure of the right bank. Back in the 1970s the colour was darker, but today the wine has a classic pale peach-pink hue with pretty red fruit aromas. On the palate there is zesty yellow citrus and pink grapefruit acidity, and it’s saline, pithy and crunchy with some fine minerality, elegant red fruit and structure."

"This wine has the palest onion-skin colour with a very light-copper tinge. The nose is both fragrant yet subtle and delicate with aromas of savoury herbs, some stonefruit and citrus zest. It’s refreshing and clean with a nice textural mouthfeel and a dry finish."
