With roots stretching back to Roman times and even the Knights Templar, the estate blends deep history with a modern, quality-driven approach. Nestled between the Alps and the Mediterranean, the vineyard benefits from a unique microclimate and the cleansing Mistral winds, helping produce naturally healthy grapes with minimal intervention. The domaine is also moving towards organic farming, reflecting a commitment to sustainability and respect for nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it’s made:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarieties: Cinsault and Syrah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-harvested at night to preserve freshness and acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCo-pressed with only the highest quality free-run juice selected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged on fine lees with weekly stirring for three months to build texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Côtes de Provence, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosé, still, dry and refreshing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegan:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eProvence rosé wine\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers everything you’d hope for – delicate red berry fruit, zesty freshness, and a clean mineral finish.
