Provence Rose 2015
Vignoble d'Azur
Vignoble d'Azur was born of a passion for the art of winemaking and a determination to produce only the best wines from Côtes de Provence and Bandol. Working together, experts of vine and soil team up with the best winemakers in the Vignoble d'Azur cellar to nurture the delicate palate and fragrances of Provence in all of our wines. Bottling, the final stage in the winemaking process, is truly an exciting experience for us. It sees all of our expertise brought together, from the skills of our field experts to the talent of our production team. The resulting product is an exceptional vintage wine from Provence. Now we want to share our art and passion with the world. Providing more than simple pleasure, Vignoble d'Azur wines evoke true emotion. This is because they are based on a philosophy rooted in traditional know-how, combined with modern techniques. We select the best winegrowing regions, and then strive for excellence in processing the wine. From the start, we decided to preserve the vines by limiting production, thereby ensuring the quality of our wine for years to come. Grapes are selectively picked by hand during the harvest. These values are at the center of the Vignoble d'Azur vineyards, giving us the confidence to know we are achieving something truly special: some of Provence’s greatest wines.
