The Lillet Rosé, a French aperitif with unmistakable charm, impressively embodies the essence of summer. This refreshing aperitif opens a taste journey to the sunny south of France, where it enchants with its fruity lightness and exquisite taste. Its popularity is constantly on the rise, as the judges at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition recognized in 2011 when they deservedly awarded it a gold medal.

Lillet Rosé is made from carefully selected white wines, which are refined with a subtle addition of red grapes. This creates an aperitif that is almost tannin-free and has a remarkable structure. The fruity freshness and the captivating aroma of Lillet Rosé are largely characterized by the white grapes, while the addition of macerated forest fruits gives it an outstanding fruitiness.

Before bottling, Lillet Rosé goes through a refinement process in which macerated oranges and cinchona from Peru are added. These noble ingredients give it additional depth and a balanced flavor profile. In addition, bitter orange peels are also integrated into the process to achieve harmonious complexity.
