Chateau Saint Pierre Cuvée Tradition Rosé

2022

Sunshine in a bottle. Pale and peachy Provence rosé.

Chateau Saint Pierre owes its fame to this very distinctive Cuvée Tradition. Produced for several decades, this AOC Côtes de Provence rosé is a blend of 40% Grenache and 60% Cinsault.

Light, bright and perfect for the summer. If you like your rosés paler than pale pink, this is the one for you.

Floral and fruity, it’s packed with aromas of white peach, melon and blossom. Quite rich and full in the mouth, it has delicate raspberry notes and crisp minerality on the finish.

Chateau Saint Pierre is a vineyard that has passed down through several generations of the same family, and is now run by winegrower Jean-Philippe Victor, a descendant of the founders. The estate now produces Grands Crus AOC Côtes de Provence and has become known as a real reference point in terms of wine production in the Provence region.

This is a vineyard that represents the heart of Provence, using traditional values and knowledge passed down through the generations to produce wines of the the highest quality.

Provence

The region of Provence sits along the Mediterranean coast of France. Wine has been made here for over 2600 years, making it the oldest wine-producing region of France. It is also the only place to focus on rosé, with over 85% of production devoted to it!

Provence is blessed with a climate that is ideal for growing grapes. The region gets lots of sunshine and not too much rain, with warm days and cool evenings. The Mediterranean moderates temperatures, and the famous ‘Mistral’ wind keeps the vineyards dry, free of pests, and the clouds at bay.

Wild shrubs like rosemary, juniper, thyme and lavender grow throughout Provence. Many say these plants, collectively called ‘Garrigue’ or ‘Maquis’, influence the character of the wines.

France

France – the home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne – is arguably the world's most important wine-producing country. For centuries, it has produced wine in greater quantity – and many would say quality – than any other nation, and its attraction is not just volume or prestige, but also the variety of styles available.

The diversity of French wine is due, in part, to the country's wide range of climates. Champagne, its most northerly region, has one of the coolest climates, whereas Bordeaux has a maritime climate, heavily influenced by the Atlantic Ocean and the various rivers that wind their way between vineyards. Both in stark contrast to the southern regions of Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon, which enjoy a Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot summers and mild winters.

Terroir is also key. From the granite hills of Beaujolais to the famous chalky slopes of Chablis and the gravels of the Médoc, the sites and soils on which France's vineyards have been developed are considered of vital importance and are at the heart of the concept of terroir.
