Bold, innovative, and distinctly French, 06 Vodka Rosé is the world’s first French Vodka Rosé. A creation as unique as the region that inspired it, this remarkable spirit captures the elegance of rosé wine and the refinement of French winter wheat vodka in a seamless union. Meticulously crafted, 06 Vodka Rosé begins with ultrasonic maceration to infuse the delicate flavors of rosé wine into vodka. A red wine from the same Domaine is then vacuum-distilled to create a rich extract, which gives the vodka its delicate, natural pink hue—a ‘robe’ as authentic as the sunset skies over the South of France. Perfectly suited for 6 PM, this vodka celebrates the golden hour when the sun dips below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the famed landscapes of Provence. Known as the moment when day turns into evening, it’s where the spirit of rosé meets the elegance of vodka. 06 Vodka Rosé transforms this magical time into an occasion to savor and share.

Bhagtah Reddy Founder & CEO said that “When I arrived in Grasse, I uncovered a rich history and, in turn, the modern methodologies of fragrance formulation and botanical extraction. The fragrance industry had evolved significantly since the mid-20th century, moving away from traditional copper stills and embracing scientific advancements to handle delicate, rare and expensive botanicals. During an early meeting at the University of Nice, I was introduced to cutting-edge technologies such as ultrasonic maceration, vacuum distillation, and CO₂ critical extraction. These methods enable more precise extraction, leading to superior quality. It was then that I realized I had inadvertently stumbled upon a golden opportunity. By applying this science, we could craft distinctive, high-quality spirits that occupy an ultra-premium category of their own—science as a disruptor of tradition.”
