WINE INFORMATION

Established in the town of Vidauban in 1922, the Maîtres Vignerons de la Vidaubanaise today control 600 hectares of vines in the heart of the Appellation Côtes de Provence. Located on the limestone foothills of the Maures massif in the southern Var, between the Mediterranean Sea and the Alps, the terroir benefits from the Mediterranean climate so beneficial for traditional southern varietals such as Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Cinsault, Carignan and Rolle. The various vineyard parcels are vinified separately, allowing for more character and complexity.

After harvest, a portion of the grapes undergo a cold maceration at various temperatures and lengths of time according to the grape variety, in order to extract a broader array of aromas. The remaining grapes are vinified by a direct pressing, the traditional method of vinifying rosé in Provence. The wines are blended, the cuvées selected, and élevage stays in stainless steel tanks until early February, when the young rosé is bottled for maximum freshness.

TASTING NOTES
