Presentation

Presentation
A delectable rosé, from a rigorous selection of less than 10% of our finest wines in the Coteaux Varois en Provence A.O.C., the result of Estandon Vignerons’ commitment to the AgriConfiance certification.
Terroir
This wine is derived from a selection of vineyard plots within the Coteaux Varois en Provence AOC area. Located in the heart of Provence, the Coteaux Varois en Provence AOC boasts a unique terroir - a Mediterranean climate with a continental influence and high-altitude vineyards with limestone soil, that allows the grapes to attain a very good phenolic maturity while preserving their acidity.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested at night. A short maceration on the skins is performed before pressing. Alcoholic fermentation is temperature-controlled and malolactic fermentation is prevented. Vinification is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, in the traditional manner.
