The wine region of Les Baux-de-Provence
Provençal AOC in the Alpilles massif (7 communes, 277 ha, France's first 100% organic/biodynamic AOC since 2023), stony calcareous soils, sunny Mediterranean climate with Mistral. Signature reds from Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah (≥60%): elegant and sun-drenched with black cherry, garrigue, thyme, rosemary, black olive and peppery notes, tannins melted by sun. Fresh, crunchy rosés. Full whites from Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Vermentino and Roussanne.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Wiring
Action of periodically filling barrels containing wine, in order to offset evaporation and maintain a maximum level. The topping up allows to avoid the phenomenon of oxidation.
