In 2019, Founder-Owner Donae Burston debuted La Fête du Rosé, a black-owned Provence rosé, which has since been recognized as a fast-growing luxury imported rosé label.
La Fête du Rosé, 2022
La Fête du Rosé is produced in partnership with the prestigious winemakers from Château Saint-Maur, one of only 18 Cru Classé estates situated in the Golf de St. Tropez.
The Blend & Tasting Notes: This exceptional wine is made with 61% Grenache, 23% Cinsault, and 16% Syrah, resulting in a harmonious and flavorful blend that is sure to impress. Crafted with care and attention in Côtes de Provence, this wine is an attractive, bright color with tints of soft cantaloupe. The nose reveals delightful notes of apricot and peach, with a slight minerality that adds depth and complexity to the wine. On the palate, the wine is both unctuous and explosive, delivering an unforgettable experience that will linger on your taste buds. The precise and refreshing finish is rounded off with flavors of exotic fruits, leaving you with a sense of satisfaction and pleasure.
Giving Back: La Fête Wine Company donates a portion of the proceeds from every bottle sold to various programs that send underserved youth on unique travel experiences such as All Abroad and, organizations such as The Roots Fund which creates opportunities for people of color in the wine & spirits industry.
Where to buy: in stores nationwide, and online via ReserveBar ($25)
