Single-vineyard in Provence

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Contemplative

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Refreshing

Minuty's Cru Classe estate rose, from the family's single Gassin estate above the Bay of Saint-Tropez. More structured than the volume M cuvee, with classic Provencal stone-fruit lift.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Contemplative

Saint Maur's premium single-vineyard rose, partially old-oak fermented for textural depth. Stone fruit and tangerine over saline depth with creamy almond-wax richness.

Cotes de Provence Cru Classe rose from organic Sainte Marguerite. Classic Provencal style: stone fruit, citrus and saline depth from coastal La Londe vineyards.

Dry · Full-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Contemplative

The Esclans flagship and benchmark for ultra-premium Provencal rose. Grenache from 80-year-old vines, fermented and aged in mostly new 600-litre demi-muids. Dense, structured and built to age.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Savoury

Clairette-led Bandol white from Pibarnon's higher terraces. Yellow apple and lemon thyme over a saline-driven palate with almond-skin texture and persistent salinity.

Tibouren-led Cotes de Provence red, aged in old foudres under velum. Light-coloured and Pinot-like in feel, with wild-herb savoury depth and a saline lift unique in Provencal red.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Contemplative

100 percent Tibouren from Cibonne's oldest single-parcel vines, aged 18 months under a velum. A long-velum-aged expression of Provencal Tibouren: dried-fruit, oxidative-driven and deeply savoury.

Dry · Medium-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Contemplative

The reference for serious Tibouren in Provence: aged 12 months in old foudres under a velum that allows controlled oxidation. Dried fruit, orange peel and nutty depth set this apart from any other Provencal rose.

Dry · Full-bodied · High tannin · High acidity · Bold · Contemplative

Almost-pure Mourvedre from a wind-sheltered, low-yielding parcel within La Tourtine. The most structured Tempier cuvee: dense, brooding and graphite-driven, with a tannin frame that demands decades.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Contemplative

Higher-altitude parcel at Le Beausset surrounded by garrigue scrub. The wine carries more red fruit and aromatic herb than La Tourtine, with a savoury lift that reads as cooler-climate Mourvedre.

Single-vineyard Mourvedre-dominant cuvee from a south-facing parcel above Le Plan du Castellet. Garrigue, iron and dark fruit over firm, fine-grained tannin and a savoury finish that needs a decade to unfurl.

Near-pure Mourvedre from the estate's oldest vines at La Cadiere d'Azur. Dense, brooding and graphite-driven; one of Bandol's most uncompromising flagship cuvees.

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Contemplative

Mourvedre-dominant single-vineyard cuvee from a parcel near Le Castellet. Wild plum and myrtle over a firm-tannin frame; the estate's most age-worthy bottling.
