The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Established in 1925, Les Vignerons d'Aix-en-Provence brings together some thirty members, all driven by the desire to enhance their clay-limestone terroirs, which extend over 250 hectares at the foot of Mount Sainte Victoire. A natural environment, ancestral expertise, modern methods and a deep-rooted passion combine to create an unbeatable range of wines with an excellent price/pleasure ratio.
Wine Predominantly made from Grenache grapes, the 2022 Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence Esprit Provence Rosé is a distinctive rosé, both delicate and assured, of beautiful fruity aromas of red fruit and citrus. Full-bodied, the palate remains lively, fresh, and very thirst-quenching, creating an extremely delicate, modern, and flavorful whole, suitable for octopus salad, grilled fish, or fresh cheeses. In Magnum format, convivial par excellence, the pleasure is multiplied tenfold; ideal for large summer tables!
Vinification Hand harvested, cold-stored for 8 days, two-week vinification in concrete vats.
