Discover the grape variety: Mireille
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet southern rustic profile. Nearly extinct and preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value, a witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of Provençal vineyards. Rare French white variety, once grown in Provence.

The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production).

Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
