Tavel 2025 - Romain Le Bars

The 2025 Tavel by Romain Le Bars is an emblematic cuvée from this young winemaker based in Tavel, in the Southern Rhône Valley. Having trained with Éric Pfifferling at l’Anglore, Romain Le Bars farms his vines using organic agriculture and produces living wines that prioritize freshness, drinkability, and an honest expression of terroir.

Made primarily from Grenache, complemented by Cinsault, Syrah, and Carignan, this Tavel is crafted with a low-intervention approach, blending direct pressing and carbonic maceration to preserve all the finesse of the fruit. Far from powerful, heavy rosés, it offers a delicate and luminous interpretation of the appellation.

The nose reveals intense aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant, and vine peach, accompanied by notes of citrus, dried flowers, and Mediterranean herbs.

The palate is ample yet perfectly balanced by a beautiful natural freshness. The texture is silky, energetic, and flavorful, with a long, saline, and lightly spiced finish.

At once delicious and gastronomic, this Tavel pairs just as well with a summer aperitif as it does with more elaborate dishes such as Mediterranean cuisine, grilled fish, white meats, or roasted vegetables.
